Description

Thames & Kosmos Geckobot Fully Functional Wall Climbing Robot - STEM This astonishing wall-climbing robot has a motorized air suction system that enables it to walk vertically up and down perfectly smooth surfaces, like glass, plastic, whiteboards, and glossy laminates. The battery-powered motor drives an innovative gear system that produces a rotating motion making the legs move back and forth and up and down, mimicking a real gecko, so two of the feet are touching the wall while the other two feet are lifted off of the wall, in an alternating motion. At the same time, the gear system drives an air pump that creates a vacuum at the two feet touching the wall while blowing air outward at the other two feet. You can build six other models with this set and conduct experiments with suction to learn about air pressure and the mechanical physics of this unique device The battery springs have some wear and the motor needs tapped sometimes to start, but stays running once started.
