Like a performer, this little balancing robot from KOSMOS walks along a rope, narrow surfaces, or even a finger! Its secret: a spinning instrument – also known as a gyroscope – that rotates at high speed inside its head. This is how Monty keeps its balance and doesn't fall down.
Thanks to the clearly illustrated assembly instructions, putting the robot together is easy, and a short adventure comic brings Monty to life.
Through various experiments, children can explore the effect of the gyroscope with their robot friend and learn from the instructions that gyroscopes even play an important role in our smartphones!
This experiment kit teaches physical phenomena in a playful way and introduces children to this STEM science.
