WhalesBot U30In-class moments
WhalesBot U30 Higher-Level Robotics Course | Course Overview
With the WhalesBot U30 Pro kit, students explore the world of robot building, coding and sensor applications. The course provides a rich set of building blocks, ultrasonic sensors, 5-in-1 greyscale sensors and servo motors, enabling students to assemble more complex robot models and programme them via the smart panel and magnetic coding cards to complete a variety of fun and practical tasks — such as automatic obstacle avoidance, line following, colour recognition and object grabbing — learning new knowledge through play and hands-on practice. This course aims to develop students' computational thinking, logical reasoning, sensor integration and problem-solving skills, laying a solid foundation for future STEM learning. Every student can build their own robot and use simple magnetic command cards to make it move, make sounds, flash lights, avoid obstacles, follow lines and complete all kinds of exciting missions!

Future-ready advantages
Students learn about advanced robot components such as ultrasonic sensors, greyscale sensors and servo motors, and how to use these parts to design and assemble a variety of fun and practical robot models. In class, students use coding cards to design commands combining sequences, loops and conditionals, enabling the robot to make smarter automatic responses based on data collected by different sensors. Each build and coding session is a process of logical reasoning and problem-solving — students analyse problems, design step-by-step instructions and try different approaches to complete tasks, strengthening computational thinking and spatial imagination. Through servo motors and modular building blocks, students also learn precise control of robot components to perform detailed actions such as grabbing and pushing. Group activities allow students to discuss and collaborate with classmates, learning to communicate and share, and to observe, analyse and try multiple solutions when problems arise.
