Gears Spur Gears The Spur Gear is the most common type of gear. It has straight teeth and is used to transmit motion between two parallel shafts. In your SPIKE Prime kit, these are the standard circular gears (like the 12-tooth, 20-tooth, or 36-tooth gears). When two spur gears mesh, they rotate in opposite directions. […]

Vacuum cleaner attachments are essential for increasing efficiency, versatility, and precision, allowing a single machine to tackle varied surfaces and hard-to-reach areas. They eliminate the need for multiple cleaning devices, reduce cleaning time by up to half, and prevent injury by enabling the cleaning of high or tight spaces without strain. So, with that in mind,

What is Computational Thinking The Four Pillars of Computational Thinking Computational thinking isn’t just for coding; it’s a problem-solving toolkit. Decomposition Decomposition: Breaking a big problem into smaller, manageable chunks By tackling one small piece at a time, complex tasks become much less overwhelming and easier to solve. For example, when designing a video game,
