What's New? – Better Auxiliary Wheel

The ball omni-directional wheel of the previous version is replaced by a mini nylon caster wheel that performs better when moving in any direction and dramatically reduces the little clack sound caused by a steel ball.

Contracted But Not Simple

Contains 38 assembly parts that can be assembled in 10 minutes and colour-labelled RJ25 ports for convenient wiring, making sure more time can be spent on programming and creativity.

Graphical Programming

Drag-and-drop graphical programming software mBlock developed based on Scratch 2.0 provides a quick way for kids to learn programming, control the robot, and realize multiple functions from the robot.

Fun, and Fun

mBot is all about fun and creativity. It comes with various basic pre-assembled options, including obstacle-avoidance car, line-following vehicle, a remote control car, and can be used in multiple games like balloon bursting game, soccer playing, sumo etc.

Infinite Extensibility

The mechanical body of the mBot is compatible with Makeblock platform and most of Lego parts, while the electronic parts are developed based on the Arduino open-source ecosystem. This makes sure that the mBot has infinite extensibility, using any mechanical parts and electronic modules you need to turn it into your "dream robot".
