An apple that defies gravity and walks a tightrope — what would Isaac Newton have thought? Build a cute apple robot that walks along a tightrope. How? Thanks to the robot’s main component, a motorized gyroscope, it can maintain its balance and perform this fun trick without falling over. Through five experiments, you can discover the astonishing powers of the motorized gyroscope and explore the physics behind its amazing behaviors. Experiment with getting the gyrobot to walk on the different included tracks and on a string, investigate the gyrobot’s center of gravity, play a ring-toss game, and watch the gyrobot spin on a flat surface.

It consists of 75 parts and it is possible to conduct 5 scientific experiments. A full-color, 8-page, illustrated experiment manual provides step-by-step assembly instructions and scientific explanations.

About Brand

Thames & Kosmos was founded in 2001 by a science museum director and her son, who saw the great need and demand for better science education materials that are more engaging, more effective, more relevant, and more fun.

Thames & Kosmos mission is to improve informal science education. Their vision is to give all children access to real, physical activities and projects that teach them about how things work; It is our firm belief that children who connect with the world around them grow up to be inquisitive adults, creative thinkers, and engaged citizens with confidence to pursue careers in science, technology, and engineering.

The science kits are organized into thirteen categories: Chemistry, Physics, Alternative Energy, Electrical Science, Biology, Earth Science & Natural History, Multi-Subject, Astronomy & Space, Historical Science, Construction+Engineering, Robotics, Crystals & Materials, and Arts & Crafts.
