Everything You Need - In One Box and Online

Bricks, programmable Hub, drag and drop software, app and lesson plans are everything you need to start quickly and build confidence—no matter what level your students are at.
The heart of the SPIKE Prime system is the programmable Hub. This advanced yet simple-to-use, brick-shaped device features 6 input/output ports, 5x5 light matrix, Bluetooth connectivity, a speaker, 6-axis gyro and a rechargeable battery.
The SPIKE Prime Set also includes highly accurate motors and sensors that, together with a large variety of colourful LEGO building elements, let students design and build fun robots, dynamic devices and other interactive models.
With many attachment points on the Hub, motors and sensors plus new, large building elements means students spend less time building and more time learning.
The durable storage box and 2 sorting trays also means time spent setting up and clearing away is kept to a minimum, while the smaller trays are ideal when desk space is limited.
