No building, no soldering, no setup. Open the case, pair over Bluetooth, and your students are coding their first program before the bell goes.
Over 40 ready-to-run activities for classrooms. No limits to what your students can build next.
Every Rover ships with the same six sensors, all readable from blocks or Python. Real data, real feedback, no extras to plug in.
Measure distance to objects up to 2 m away
Detect colours and line markings on the ground
Short-range proximity on left and right
Sense tilt, impacts, and orientation changes
Track rotation and angular velocity
Monitor voltage and current as your code runs
Tough hardware, simple to teach with, ready for a class set on day one.
Teachers don't need coding experience to run lessons. Drag-and-drop blocks, guided activities, and classroom controls make it easy to get started.
A sealed plastic shell with no exposed electronics. Designed in Australia to survive years of classroom drops, knocks, and sticky fingers.
6 hours of battery covers a full school day. Class sets ship in a hard carry case with a built-in charging dock, so ten Rovers charge from a single outlet.
The Micromelon Rover is the hardware students use at every stage, from simplified blocks in Junior to professional Python.
Two ways to take students further: optional 3D printed attachments, or your own electronics through the universal expansion header.
A motorised shooter for target practice and projectile motion lessons.
An articulated servo-controlled arm that scoops and moves material, pairing with the Tipper for excavation and construction challenges.
Lift, carry, and place objects with servo-powered programmable precision.
Hold a pen or marker so the Rover can draw shapes and patterns as it drives. Great for geometry, loops, and creative coding activities.
Balloon holders and pin attachments for head-to-head popping battles. A class favourite that sneaks in sensors, steering, and strategy.
A servo-driven gripper that lets the Rover pick up, carry, and release objects. Perfect for sorting tasks and rescue challenges.
Push objects and clear paths with a sturdy servo-powered blade. Clips onto the front of the Rover and is a favourite for construction challenges.
A wide flat scoop that maximises pushing contact area, one of three scoop designs to test and compare in classroom sumo battles.
A universal expansion header on top of every Rover lets students wire in Raspberry Pi, Arduino, servos, and other 3rd-party electronics. No soldering required.
Every Micromelon Rover is designed, assembled, and tested right here in Australia.
The best thing about the Rover is how easy it is to program. Use blocks and Python at the same time with our Code Editor.
Everything students need to explore robotics, electronics, and programming, built into one compact robot.
