Robotic Construction Kits

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Build Your Own Robot with This Construction Kit From CES 2014

— January 13, 2014 — Tech
The new Mod Robotics' MOSS Robot Construction Kit recently debuted at CES 2014.

This color-coded building block kit on Kickstarter will make you nostalgic of times when you could create a world out of your Lego sets using only your pudgy little hands.

Already having raised more money than needed for the team to hit its goal, Mod Robotics seem to be in high demand and it’s not hard to see why. Made up of 1x1 or 2x1 cube configurations, these colored-by-function bricks (green is the power source, red is the color of sensors, black for the motors and blue for the connectors) use magnets to keep your robotic masterpieces intact.

What makes this kit even savvier is that you can control your robot via iOS or Android apps using a Bluetooth module.
Trend Themes
1. Modular Robotics - The rise of modular robotics presents opportunities for businesses to create customizable and adaptable products and solutions for customers.
2. DIY Robotics - The DIY robotics trend offers businesses the chance to educate and empower consumers to create their own products, fostering innovation and creativity.
3. Connected Robotics - The increasing use of Bluetooth modules and smartphone apps to control robots presents opportunities for businesses to create more user-friendly and efficient products.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Industry - The toy industry can tap into the modular and DIY robotics trend by offering customizable and educational robot building kits for children.
2. Education Industry - The education industry can benefit from the DIY robotics trend by offering courses and programs that teach students robotics and programming skills.
3. Manufacturing Industry - The manufacturing industry can harness the power of modular robotics to create more flexible and adaptable production lines that can quickly adapt to changing demand and customer needs.
