The Tamiya 70198 Wall Hugging Mouse is a straightforward educational model that blends a simple build with practical lessons in basic robotics. The kit is aimed at hobbyists and beginners who want to see how sensors influence motion.
This mouse uses a small sensor arrangement to detect walls and steer in a zig-zag path alongside them. The transparent blue shell reveals the working components so builders can observe how the drive and steering parts interact.
With a screwless construction and pre-wired elements, the kit is quick to assemble and avoids fiddly screw work. Its components are compatible with other Tamiya Educational Construction items, opening up options for tweaks and upgrades.
The whimsical face stickers make the model a fun desk display as well as a learning tool. It is powered by a single AA battery (not included) and will normally run for about six hours on a fresh battery.
