We believe that every kid should have a shot at learning and doing the things they might be amazing at! From block-based coding to JavaScript, k8 is your best friend for discovering the wonderful world of robotics.

Build - k8 is fun and easy to build! Follow along with our step by step tutorials to assemble k8 from scratch in less than 30 minutes.

Code - Learning to code has never been easier! k8 is powered by micro:bit and microsoft make code to allow students to start with block coding and work their way up to JavaScript. The programming software is completely cloud-based and runs like a breeze on a chromebook.

Share - Using micro:bit makes it easy for groups of 3 or even 4 to share the use of the robot and iterate on their own code! No more tethering to the computer, take your code to k8.
Discover - With more than eight sensors and motors, k8 opens a world of possibilities, for making, playing and learning!

The online course materials include seven introductory programming modules: Assembly, Hello World, motor control, line following, ultrasonic, radio control, servo control. Take your programming further with two intermediate modules: Robot sports and sumo.
