What better way to ignite a passion for STEM learning in children than with the Edison Educational Robot Kit This innovative, Lego-compatible robotics and coding kit is designed to make the complex fields of electronics, engineering, and programming accessible to children aged 5 and up.
The Edison Robot, named to reflect an inventive spirit, is more than just a toy. It's a hands-on, interactive learning tool that goes beyond traditional textbook learning. It engages children in a fun, practical way, encouraging them to explore and experiment with robotics. But it's not just about robotics - this kit also introduces children to engineering, math, and general science concepts such as sensors.
Each Edison Robot is equipped with a host of sensors and can be programmed using a variety of free software applications. These include EdBlocks, a graphical robot programming language perfect for beginners aged 8 to 12; EdWare, a hybrid graphical robot programming software that combines drag-and-drop icons with text-based entry; and EdPy, a text-based programming language that teaches the popular Python programming language.
The Edison Robot interacts with the world through infra-red (IR) transmitters and receivers, line tracking, barcode reading, and sound detection. It's equipped with two motors with variable speeds, left and right red LED lights, and three control buttons. The robots can communicate with each other over IR, and can also be programmed by and controlled with TV and DVD remotes.
The Lego-compatible plates on the robot's face allow for endless possibilities. Children can scale up their creations, combine multiple robots for more complex systems, and even power new inventions with the robot's motors.
The Edison Educational Robot Kit is more than just a learning tool - it's a gateway to the world of STEM. It provides children with the opportunity to experiment, explore their imagination, and cultivate their innovative spirit, all while having fun.
Please note: This product contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years old due to the potential choking hazard.
