Scott Steinem this should be your next
leg okay
your next leg okay could be one that
makes cool robots like really cool ones
Lego boost is the best of both worlds
it's a big Lego construction set and
it's a programmable robotics kit and so
far it's pretty great for $160 you get
840 bricks a central bluetooth connected
computer motors and instructions to make
several robots and toys a big rolling
robot named Bernie an electric Lego
guitar a roving walker a kitten and a
lego building mini machine Lego boost
connects with Android or iOS apps where
instructions for everything are kept
everything is programmable too with
sound effects coming from your phone or
tablet Lego boost sensors can respond to
movement in colors and actions can be
triggered from voice on your phone or
tablet's microphone building Vernie the
main robot in lego boost took a grown
adult like me about two hours but a
motivated kid like my son was a bit
quicker my 8th year all joined in and
totally schooled me to make other models
you need to tear down your first line
poison and build another lego boost uses
a mix of traditional Lego bricks and
ones like Technic uses but it also means
you can decorate your boost robots with
your own Legos and get as weird as you
want going off-road is part of the idea
even the sound effects can be customized
there are already hundreds but you can
add your own boost is meant for a
younger range of kids than the years old
Lego Mindstorm kits about 7 to 12 the
idea is that the skills learned here
could be built on in future app updates
or in step-up kits but boost is
self-contained so all the things that
can do here and later on are in this one
box which has a parent I love all my
kids wanted to see though was the LEGO
robots farting so here you go kids LEGO
robots farting
