Introduction

Maqueen Plus V2 (18650 Battery) with HUSKYLENS AI Vision Sensor is a compact programmable robot platform designed for classroom robotics, AI experimentation, and hands‑on engineering projects. Built around the micro:bit ecosystem, this AI-enabled robot car combines mobility, visual recognition, and rich expansion capability in a single learning platform. The upgraded robotics chassis features additional IO interfaces, integrated sensors, and strong compatibility with accessories such as Gravity: HUSKYLENS and Maqueen Mechanic Kits. A larger chassis structure, onboard power management, and enhanced lighting effects make this programmable AI rover well suited for robotics education, algorithm testing, and intelligent vehicle demonstrations.

Note: This product includes micro: Maqueen Plus v2 (18650 battery) and Gravity: HUSKYLENS.

micro: bit board and batteries are not included.


AI Vision Integration with HuskyLens

This intelligent robot platform integrates the widely adopted HUSKYLENS AI vision sensor, enabling visual recognition functions such as object tracking, face recognition, line following, and color detection. The AI camera performs onboard machine‑vision processing, allowing robotics learners to create autonomous behaviors without complex neural‑network programming. Combined with the mobile rover chassis, this AI-enabled robotics kit supports rapid prototyping of vision‑guided robots, smart vehicles, and interactive classroom demonstrations.


Expanded IO and Flexible Hardware Ecosystem

This enhanced educational robot chassis provides abundant connectivity for sensors and actuators. Multiple IO ports (3.3V IO, 5V IO, and I2C interfaces) enable integration of ultrasonic ranging, servo modules, LEDs, and additional robotics peripherals. Compatibility with Maqueen expansion mechanics and accessory kits allows creative structural upgrades including robotic arms, grabbers, and autonomous navigation mechanisms. Such expansion capability turns the programmable rover into a versatile experimentation platform for robotics development and classroom engineering projects.


Optimized Robotics Chassis and Reliable Drive System

An upgraded mechanical structure improves durability and usability for daily educational environments. The larger vehicle body provides more space for sensors and structural add‑ons, while the frosted acrylic bottom plate enhances protection during frequent operation. Dual N20 all‑metal gear motors deliver smooth and stable movement for line tracking and obstacle avoidance. Five integrated line‑tracking sensors simplify programming logic and improve tracking performance during robotics competitions or algorithm experiments.


Enhanced Lighting and Power Architecture

An onboard power system designed for 18650 lithium batteries provides stable operation and convenient recharging through MicroUSB or Type‑C interfaces. Integrated RGB ambient lighting and upgraded LED headlights support interactive feedback, visual debugging, and creative lighting effects in robotics projects. Built‑in buzzer, IR receiver, ultrasonic module interface, and programmable LEDs further expand interactive possibilities for robotics demonstrations and coding exercises.


This AI-enabled robotics vehicle serves as a powerful teaching platform for STEM Education, robotics competitions, and after‑school innovation labs. Combining programmable mobility, AI vision capability, and modular expansion, the robotics learning system enables students to explore artificial intelligence, autonomous navigation, and embedded programming through practical experimentation.
