The set allows you to build more complex and functional robots and is used both for work in auditoriums and for competitions in robotics.

'Children of middle and senior classes will be engaged for work in the robotics class',  says Svetlana Krivitskaya, the director of the school, 'such lessons will help our children develop systematic scientific thinking, as well as design and engineering skills. We plan to participate in contests and competitions and, of course, win. We would like to express our gratitude to the University management for the worth-while and necessary equipment for the children'.
