TL;DR: Have fun while working on your engineering skills with Smart Nano Bots (including 70 parts, 250 components, and tools) for $50.15, a savings of over $100 as of Sept. 6.
We might’ve joked about robots taking over the world in the past, but today, it’s no joke. Robots are restocking shelves, cleaning houses, delivering packages, and even driving for us. They’re making our lives easier, inspiring us, and even entertaining us in these unprecedented times. But who are the folks behind these awe-inspiring, intelligent machines? After all, robots don’t just appear out of thin air.
The technical geniuses building these complex creations are mostly electrical and mechanical engineers — but with this Geeek Club Robot Construction Kit, you can get a little taste of their genius and develop your own robot-building skills that will amaze and entertain. Successfully funded on Kickstarter and Indiegogo at $137k and $145k, respectively, this DIY kit allows you learn engineering skills and build robots without boring yourself to tears with courses and textbooks.
In the kit, you’ll get all the motors, sensors, and robotic pieces you need to craft your own miniature troop of seven smart, roving robots. Plus, you’ll get step-by-step instructions that make building robots no more complicated than other common construction toys and instructional videos where the inventor of the kit shows you exactly how they work. Of course, you’ll also learn all the electrical information to familiarize yourself with the components and how to solder them onto the printed circuit boards.

Beyond having a bunch of tiny robots to show off to your friends, family, and coworkers, you’ll also develop structural, hardware, and electrical engineering skills, artistic design skills, and soldering skills. And the best part? You don’t have to sit in a classroom or read a textbook to do it.
Regularly $99 and on sale for $59, you can snatch this kit for a steal for a limited time. Take an extra 15% off the sale price using the code GOFORIT15 and you’ll pay just $50.15 during Labor Day weekend.
Prices subject to change.
