An educational robot and mini solar toy. He's small, but he's an attention-getter. Explore the potential of solar power with this neat science toy. The Solar Powered Cockroach teaches about forms of alternative energy. Shows how solar energy can be used to generate electricity Illustrates how radiant energy from the sun can be transformed to electrical energy with a PV cell A motor inside the cockroach transforms electrical energy to motion. Functions best very close to a non-florescent light bulb or in direct sunlight. An attention-grabbing display piece related to solar power for a science fair project, class discussion, or just out-of-the-ordinary play.
