How It Works
The SpinBot uses a vibration motor with an off-center weight.
As the motor spins:
-
The imbalance creates vibration
-
The vibration transfers to the legs
-
The robot starts moving, shaking, spinning, or drawing
Kids can adjust the legs and arm angles to change movement style—turning robotics into a creative experiment.
