Technical requirements

One of the creative constraints when designing the builds in this book is to only use the parts, sensors, and elements contained in the kit. There will not be any additional parts needed to complete any of these builds. You will only need the SPIKE Prime Set 45678.

For software, you will need to download the LEGO SPIKE Prime software on either your computer, phone, or tablet. Please check the site to ensure your hardware and operating system are compatible with the software. You can get everything you need to set up by choosing LEGO Education SPIKE Prime on the LEGO site at https://education.lego.com/en-us/start.

For the building of the robot, all you will need is the SPIKE Prime kit. For programming, you will need the LEGO SPIKE application/software.
