The LEGO Mindstorm NXT 2.0 is THE hot Christmas present this year.  It takes LEGO to a whole new level by combining the well-known LEGO building system with a microcomputer brick and programming software, which means you can built real, honest to gosh ROBOTS!  Robots that can see, speak, feel and move! Seriously, this is the most awesome toy since ... well, since ever! The NXT 2.0 robotics tool set has everything included taht you need to create and program your very first real robot in about an hour.  And once you've done that, there's an endless variety of robots you can create to do what you want. 


Have a kid that's outgrowing most toys?  THIS is what he's waiting for! And even though it's been designed to be easy enough for kids as young as 10, it's also an awesome gift for college students - what engineeriing student wouldn't love to have everything he needed to build his own robot? As LEGO says - If you can dream it, you can build it!

Why is it the perfect gift this Christmas?

LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 (8547) has everything included that your kid needs to start building robots. The brains of this 612 piece set is an intelligent, computer-controlled LEGO brick that features a 32-bit microprocessor, a large matrix display, input and output ports, and a speaker. There are three interactive servo motors that give you control over your robot. They're so precise that the built in rotation sensor measures steps of one degree! How's that for control?

It also has 4 sensors - an ultrasonic sensor and an all new color sensor for vision, and two touch sensors that you can use to make your robot do things like walk, talk, close a door, or turn off your TV.

I think that the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT 2.0 is a great set for the creative youngster (and for the inventive adult!) This robotics kit can offer hours and hours of fun. While playing with it, you'll (or your kid) be able to interact with people all over the world, and you'll have a great start in engineering. - Laurens Valk, The Netherlands



I bought this kit instead of sending my son to computer camp this summer. He has enjoyed creating robots with the Lego Mindstorm NXT 2.0 more than the computer camp he went to last summer. The Mindstorm has allowed him to create and program his own robots. This has kept him busy almost every day since he received the kit. - Jim, MA
