Assemble this cutting-edge, segmented arm from almost 300 plastic pieces and learn how each part comes together in its intricate mechanical design. This innovative system is controlled by a pair of joysticks that pull and release a network of nylon cables threaded throughout, enabling intuitive and precise movements, much like how tendons work to control the muscles in your arm. The result is a mesmerizing motion reminiscent of a cyborg creature’s tentacles in a sci-fi movie! Use the buttons on the top of each joystick to open, close, and rotate the claw 180 degrees. Challenge yourself or your friends to grab, move, and release various objects. Bonus: Switch out the gripper claw with a model of an eel’s head to transform your robotic arm into a slithery bionic eel. A full-color manual guides model building and experimentation and provides engaging scientific information about how this type of robotic arm works while offering up real-world examples. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrom the Brand\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv style=\\\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0;margin:0;padding:0;line-height:0;font-size:0;\\\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/c3b21ee1-13b0-42d7-a960-02f2d4174ebd.__CR0,0,1464,625_PT0_SX1464_V1___.jpg\\\" style=\\\"flex:1 1 auto;min-width:120px;max-width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;margin:0!important;padding:0!important;display:block;border:0;vertical-align:top;line-height:0;\\\" loading=\\\"lazy\\\" \/\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/a38a5cea-5f2e-41be-9048-d35249498dce.__CR0,0,315,145_PT0_SX315_V1___.jpg\\\" style=\\\"flex:1 1 auto;min-width:120px;max-width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;margin:0!important;padding:0!important;display:block;border:0;vertical-align:top;line-height:0;\\\" loading=\\\"lazy\\\" \/\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Thames \u0026amp; Kosmos, our goal is to provide fun, wholesome, educational experiences for kids and families of all shapes and sizes!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor over 200 years, our global family of companies has been refining the process of developing creative and innovative ways to inspire children—and adults!—to discover their world, ask questions, and try things for themselves, all with the goal of transforming that curiosity into knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eHow did we get our start?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThames \u0026amp; Kosmos was founded in 2001 when a Rhode Island science museum director and her son partnered with a 200-year-old German publishing house to fulfill the great need for science education materials that were more stimulating, effective, relevant—and of course, fun!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eHow do we support our products?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur full-time team of in-house product experts is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive.
