The WhalesBot AI Module 5 is a feature-rich robotics kit designed for educational and DIY purposes, ideal for learners ages 8 and up. With a powerful controller, customizable structural components, and various sensors and actuators, this kit enables users to build, program, and interact with their own robots.

The kit features a 32-bit controller with 2 closed-loop motors (5V), 3 indicator lights, 1 speaker, a 780mAh lithium battery, and Bluetooth for wireless connectivity. The handheld programmer comes with a built-in buzzer and Bluetooth, featuring 72 buttons that can issue over 100 commands, including forward, backward, loop, and line patrol, enabling programming, debugging, and remote control when connected to the controller. It also includes a 5-channel grayscale sensor for line patrol and other functions. The intelligent motor operates at 5V for responsive movement. With 135 structural parts in 29 types, using a screwless, patchwork construction method based on standard 10mm building blocks, the kit is easy to assemble. The transmission parts include 3 types of gears: 36 bevel spur gears, 8-tooth spur gears, and 24-tooth spur gears, providing precise mechanical movement.

There are 48 courses available that use no-screen Block Coding method. The key learning result is understanding basic construction, introduction to electronic bricks, and logic related to input, output, and controller. As the courses progress, they become more complex and include additional functions. These courses are best suited for kids who are completely new to coding.
