Inspire deep and joyful learning with the micro:bit-powered Hummingbird Bit Robotics Kit! The Hummingbird Robotics Kit is comprised of lights, sensors, and motors which allow students to build a robot out of any materials. The power of Hummingbird is in its flexibility – the same reusable kit can animate a poem, model the human arm, build an autonomous rover, or create a pinball machine. Hummingbird epitomizes a low-floor, high-ceiling approach: absolute beginners can build and program a robot in minutes, but continue learning advanced engineering and programming for years.
The Base Kit model includes reusable parts for 1 robot:

• 1 – Bit Controller (Robot brain)
• 1 – Terminal Tool
• 1 – Battery Pack (4x AA)
• 1 – Green LED
• 1 – Red LED
• 1 – Yellow LED
• 2 – Tri-color LED
• 2 – FS90 Servo
• 2 – Servo Extension Cables
• 1 – Light Sensor
• 1 – Dial Sensor
• 1 – User Manual
• 1 – Base Kit Case

All Hummingbird Bit Robotics Kits work with the following programming languages:

• BirdBlox (block-based – available on iOS, Android, Fire OS)
• MakeCode (block-based – available on Chromebooks, Mac, Windows, Linux)
• Snap! (block-based – available on Chromebooks, Mac, Windows)
• Python (text-based – available on Chromebooks, Mac, Windows)
• Java (text-based – available on Mac, Windows)
• Swift (text-based iOS app builder – available on Mac)
• Kotlin (text-based Android app builder – available on Mac, Windows)

►Free classroom-tested and standards-aligned learning materials, such as programming tutorials, lesson plans, and printable student activities.
►With the Birdbrain Hummingbird Bit Base, you can create and program your own robotic creations, such as robots, drones, and more.
►The micro:bit board is a powerful and versatile microcontroller that allows you to write code in Python, C++, and more.
►The kit includes a wide range of accessories, such as motors, sensors, and LEDs, that you can use to build your robotic creations.
►Note on devices: We have verified 5 USB-C adapters that will allow you to use the Hummingbird Kit with USB C ports. Click on the links in the attachment to be taken to stores where you can purchase these dongles. Other dongles may also work, but these 5 have been tested and work without issue. Please note that the Hummingbird Bit uses micro:bit as its processor; you must have a micro:bit in order to operate the robot.
