Product description: Maqueen Lite V5 - STEM educational robot for learning micro:bit programming - DFRobot MBT0046
Maqueen Lite V5 is a versatile educational robot for the BBC micro:bit that facilitates classes in programming, electronics, and automation. Its integrated line-tracking system and three sensors allow for quick and easy setup. This allows students to focus on developing logical thinking and creating their own projects, rather than tedious hardware setup. The robot also offers support for an ultrasonic sensor, RGB lighting, light sensors, a buzzer, and an infrared receiver , making it suitable for both simple exercises and more complex STEM projects.
Maqueen Lite V5 - STEM educational robot for learning micro:bit programming - DFRobot MBT0046.
Botland is an official distributor of DFRobot open-source hardware. Every roboticist and practitioner of emerging technology has heard at least once of DFRobot solutions, built above all around Arduino. Our range holds original DFRobot products only.
The Maqueen Lite V5 is delivered fully assembled, allowing you to start learning immediately, saving you valuable lesson time.
Main features of the micro:bit Maqueen Lite V5 robot
- Ready to go : fully assembled robot that can be started immediately after installing the batteries and connecting the micro:bit module
- Line Tracking : 3 sensors and a built-in line tracking algorithm that make it easy to quickly start learning how to ride on the route
- Multitasking : Built-in chip-level line tracing reduces the workload on the micro:bit and allows you to perform multiple functions simultaneously
- Distance sensor : ultrasonic obstacle avoidance module enables the construction of autonomous projects
- Lighting effects : 4 WS2812 diodes and 2 RGB spotlights allow you to create visually attractive educational projects
- Light sensors : 2 intensity sensors with a range of 0 to 1023 enable the implementation of projects that respond to the light source
- Durable drive : 2 N20 metal motors are designed for reliable operation in a school environment
- Easy to service : Detachable, bolt-on motors make replacement easy and reduce downtime
- Expandability : GPIO, I2C and servo ports allow you to expand your project with additional modules and accessories
Programming the micro:bit robot in STEM education
Maqueen Lite V5 was designed for easy coding learning using the micro:bit platform . Beginners can use the graphical MakeCode editor, where algorithms are built by dragging colored blocks. For more advanced users, the robot offers full support for the Python language and the Mind+, which paves the way for the creation of complex automation and artificial intelligence projects. The robot integrates with educational materials and sample projects, allowing students to quickly get started with features such as driving, line tracking, obstacle avoidance, RGB lighting control, and light sensitivity . Built-in solutions reduce technical challenges, which is crucial for larger group classes.
Sample projects with code for the micro:bit are available in the manufacturer's documentation.
The set is designed for students aged 8+ and teachers.
Modular design and easy maintenance
The Maqueen Lite V5 was designed with intensive use in classrooms and workshops in mind. The manufacturer uses metal N20 motors and a closed drive system , which helps reduce the risk of damage caused by small debris. A major advantage is that the motors are detachable and can be replaced by unscrewing the mounting , without having to purchase a new robot. This solution simplifies maintenance, reduces operating costs, and allows the system to be returned to operation faster. The PCB also features six threaded mounting points, allowing for expansion of the robot with additional accessories and sensors . Additionally, built-in reverse battery protection protects the electronics from accidental damage by students.
Applications of an educational robot for learning programming
The Maqueen Lite V5 is perfect for STEM classes, hobby clubs, workshops, and home learning. The robot can be used for programming, robotics, automation, and IoT basics , as well as for building vehicles that follow lines, avoid obstacles, and react to light. Its ready-to-use design and numerous hardware features make it suitable for students aged 8 and up, teachers, and beginner hobbyists . It can also be used in robotics shows and competitions where rapid implementation and stable operation are essential.
The educational robot platform is designed to work with the BBC micro:bit module.
The robot is powered by three 1.5 V AA batteries or 1.2 V Ni-MH rechargeable batteries.
