Build the motion sensor

The kit lets young builders assemble a sensor that uses four light beams to detect three-dimensional hand movements. It connects to a compatible tablet so code can react to gestures in real time. No tablet is included in the box.

Step up from screen-only coding

Children who have only used drag-and-drop apps on a touchscreen can now write programs that respond to physical motion. The jump is worthwhile when a learner wants to see code control lightsabers, starships or music through gestures instead of taps.

Sustained creative sessions

The sensor tracks continuous motion during extended play, letting users pilot X-wings or compose music without losing responsiveness. Projects can be saved and shared in the moderated Kano World community for ongoing remixing and collaboration.

Questions about this item

What device does the sensor connect to for coding and play?

The sensor connects via Bluetooth Low Energy to a compatible tablet or computer running the Kano app; the tablet itself is not included in the box.

What is the first assembly step that builders often skip?

The kit requires you to physically assemble the sensor hardware and follow the on-screen storybook guide to calibrate the four light beams before any coding challenges unlock.

How do I keep the sensor working after months of use?

Keep the four light-beam lenses clean with a dry microfibre cloth and replace the batteries when the Bluetooth connection becomes unreliable.
