Robots are great for learning STEM concepts. We have covered a bunch of programmable models here in the past. The Hiwonder miniHexa is also worth a look. It is an open source hexapod robot that is ready for Arduino programming. This 18DOF robot can operate in all directions. It is ready for expansion with AI vision, voice module, ultrasonic, and touch sensor for face detection and color recognition.
miniHexa comes with ultrasonic and IMU sensors, so it can measure distances and avoid obstacles. This robot can adjust yaw, pitch, roll angles on the move and dynamically shift its center of gravity for agile movement. It has a graphical PC software for control of its movement and body stance. You get a live view of all the action on your phone. miniHexa features voice control.
