{"product_id":"t-k-bionic-robotic-arm","title":"Bionic Robotic Arm","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe robotic arm of the future is here! The segmented arm is driven by cables like the tendons in muscles, resulting in a mesmerizing motion reminiscent of a cyborg creature’s tentacles in a sci-fi movie. Assemble this cutting-edge robotic arm from almost 300 plastic pieces, learning how each part comes together in its intricate mechanical design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce assembled, you can intuitively control the arm with two joysticks, which pull and release the multiple nylon cables threaded through it, enabling easy and precise control of its movement. Use the right joystick to control the upper body and the left one for the lower body. You’ll be amazed at how instinctive it feels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust a touch of the right button rotates the claw up to 180 degrees, while pressing the left button gives you the power to open and close the claw. Move the two joysticks and push the two buttons to maneuver the claw to grab, move, and release various objects. Using this robotic arm feels like being at the controls of a state-of-the-art remote operating robot or high-tech cleanroom. And it’s all controlled by the power of your hands — no motors or electricity required!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonus: Switch out the gripper claw with a model of an eel’s head to transform your robotic arm into a slithery bionic eel. Can you pick up the included small shrimp models with the eels mouth?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA full-color manual guides model building and experimentation and provides engaging scientific information about how this type of robotic arm works, including real world examples.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStunning mechanical design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutting-edge tendon-driven controls system\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncredible range of motion:\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArm: 360-degree, 23-inch horizontal working area and 180-degree, 15-inch vertical working area\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClaw: 180-degree rotation, 2.5-inch maximum grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntuitively controlled via two joysticks and cables\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEffortlessly operate with unparalleled flexibility\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo interchangeable end effectors (gripper claw and fun eel head)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuild from almost 300 parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdditional Information\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAges: 10+ with help | 14+ I got this\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExperiments: 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePiece Count: 297\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManual Pages: 56\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Dimensions: 15.7 x 11.4 x 4.1 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAwards:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 2024 Toy Insider Top Holiday Toy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest Products’ 2024 Robot Toy of the Year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 2024 Good Housekeeping Best Toy Awards Winner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 2025 Toy of the Year Finalist (Educational Toy category)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"480\" height=\"271\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/u9NUn33nRSs\" title=\"Bionic Robotic Arm\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"THAMES \u0026 KOSMOS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40995993616447,"sku":"620506","price":54.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0069\/4009\/8629\/files\/BionicArm_BoxFront.webp?v=1752038569","url":"https:\/\/canvasrto.shop\/products\/t-k-bionic-robotic-arm","provider":"Bird in Hand","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
