The Hummingbird Duo is the brainchild of a spin-off company from the Carnegie Mellon University, where it started off with the Arts and Bots project in the CREATE Lab. The very first Hummingbird kit version has already made its way across a few hundred schools, where it has been used to expand the students’ creative minds and tickle their imagination.
It is touted to be an excellent vehicle or platform to introduce the likes of electronics, robotics, engineering and programming regardless of the environment, be it at home, in the classroom, in summer camp, or in a club. Hopefully more educational minded folk will see the Hummingbird Duo to be relevant in the development of a child than as an afterthought.
