Velleman KSR6 - Manual

KSR6 – "LADYBUG" ROBOT KIT
1. Introduction & Characteristics
Thank you for buying the KSR6! Read this manual carefully before bringing the device into use.
The KSR6 uses infrared emitting diodes as "eyes" to avoid obstacles in its path. The Ladybug automatically makes a
left turn when it detects an object. It continues to move forward as long as there's no detection.
The Kit comes complete with 2 sets of differently designed legs, which move in their own distinct way. Fun and
excitement are guaranteed.
The KSR6 requires four 1.5Vdc AAA-batteries (not included).
Apart from the batteries, you will also need a pair of long-nose pliers, a soldering iron, a diagonal cutter, a
screwdriver, a soldering iron and a length of solder wire.
