SourceBots

SourceBots is a not-for-profit organisation aiming to promote Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects to teenagers. It does this by hosting robotics challenges which encourage participants to work together in an environment markedly different to the way they would at school or college.

SourceBots’ kit is largely similar to the Student Robotics kit.
