Abstract: A toy construction robotics system including a robotics control unit, the robotics control unit comprising: a housing comprising coupling elements configured for releasably interconnecting the robotics control unit with cooperating toy construction elements; a processor comprising programmed instructions; a plurality of I/O-ports connected to communicate with the processor; a plurality of separate light emitters arranged in a two-dimensional array on a front side of the housing, each of the light emitters being operable in response to instructions from the processor so as to produce at least two different indicator states; wherein the light emitters are aligned with respect to the I/O-ports such that each of the I/O-ports has an associated light emitter next to it. The light emitters may be operable, in response to instructions from the processor, to produce a machine readable code encoding data in respect of the robotics control unit. The machine readable code may comprise instructions for interaction between the robotics control unit and an external device.

Abstract: A toy figurine comprising a multi-part housing. The toy figurine includes a circuit board provided in the multi-part housing. The circuit board is in electrical communication with part electrical switch for activating a functionality of the circuit board. The toy figurine includes art elongate pin provided in an interior of the multi-part housing and a push button provided on an exterior of the multi-part housing and adjacent to the elongate pin. Upon actuation of the push button by a user, the push button drives the elongate pin to contact the electrical switch.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sensor module for a modular toy construction set having one or more optical sensors. The sensor module forms one or more apertures aligned with the field of view of the one or more optical sensors. A plurality of separate indicator lights are arranged around the one or more apertures. The indicator lights light up in an illumination pattern in response to a determination of the location of a recognised object within the field of view of at least one of the one or more optical sensors.
