Graphical programming
With Arduino-based graphical programming software, children will learn the basics of programming intuitively and will easily develop logical thinking skills.
Graphical programming.
Built-in sensors
The robot has various built-in sensors such as: IR reflective sensor, ultrasonic distance sensor, color sensor, light sensitivity and geomagnetic sensors, which allow to perform tasks such as line tracing, obstacle detection, without user control, which gives the impression of autopilot.
Built-in sensors.
Teaching through play
There are teaching materials and online courses for programming the robot. Students can follow the step-by-step guide by assembling the robot, connecting circuits and writing the program.
Extended interfaces
AI-Starter provides interfaces such as: XBEE, Bluetooth, universal I/O, serial, I2C and other ports, thanks to which children can extend the robot's capabilities with additional modules and extend their skills. The platform is powered bya Li-Ion 18650 battery, so it can be charged via USB.
Many communication interfaces.
