The LEGO 9852 set, also known as the “Dacta Control Lab Building Set,” was released in 1995 as part of the LEGO Dacta theme, which is now known as LEGO Education. This set was designed to introduce and teach principles of technology and control systems to children, making use of real-world applications. It featured a variety of LEGO bricks and specialized pieces, including motors, lights, and sensors, as well as the iconic LEGO Interface B, which allowed users to connect their creations to a computer. With this setup, children could not only build but also program their models to perform various tasks, enabling a hands-on experience with basic programming and robotics. The LEGO 9852 set was a pioneering educational tool, encouraging creativity, problem-solving, and an understanding of early STEM concepts through interactive play.
