Hello! I am Sara from Makespace Madrid
and I am going to present you Oblobots, a project developed by Jorge Medal
Oblobots! is an educational do it yourself parametric platform that help parents and teachers introduce children to simple electrical circuits. It consists on a kit of a 20 cm customizable robot assembled from printed parts. The main part of the robot is the body where children will placed a 4.5V or 9V battery that will be able conect leds, small motors and speakers with hand made conductive plasticine.
To celebrate Jameco
Build Night during August 2013, we used the assorted led components to run another iteration of this workshop at Makespace Madrid. It was a really crowded and successful night and we'd like to thank Jameco and the Instructables team for their support.
Let's see what we need to make these Oblobot: * 3D printed parts of the robot.*Conductive plastecine: 1 cup Water
