uKit Explore, formerly UKIT Advanced, offers an open-ended approach to robotics and coding for the more experienced roboticists in your classroom. With a more sophisticated and versatile tool set, uKit Explore provides an in-depth look at the mechanics, electronics, and programming behind real high-tech robotics. This kit is recommended for middle to high school.
uCode is the web programming environment that takes machine learning to the next level. Students of all levels can program using block-based coding and dual text-based programming. uCode not only programs uKit Explore robots but goes above and beyond, allowing students to create digital games and animations, code 3D simulations, and utilize real-time AI programming.

3D, 360-degree build instructions for 38 robots
AI-integrated blocks and machine model training environment
3 programming environments: Stage, Upload, and 3D
In order to connect the uKit Explore board within uCode, users must install and open the uCode Connection Assistant (PC or Mac) as prompted when trying to connect.
uCode is optimized for Google Chrome and best runs within the Chrome browser.
Program with Arduino IDE
The uKit Explore programming board is also fully compatible with the Arduino programming environment. The Arduino IDE is an open-source platform that allows users to write programs and upload to multiple micro-controllers. Download Arduino IDE here.
UKITs are STEM.org Authenticated™ and integrate well into STEM-friendly homes and programs.
