Description

Ages 5+ / Grades K+
EDISON EDUCATIONAL ROBOT KIT - SET OF 3- STEAM - ROBOTICS AND CODING
Named to reflect an ""inventive spirit,"" Edison Robots are the result of a genuine passion for innovation and a vision to make electronics, engineering, robotics and programming accessible to as many people as possible. These LEGO® compatible modular and easily expandable educational robots are clean, safe, reusable, expandable and robust, providing students across all grade levels, from ages 5+, with an opportunity to experiment and grow their knowledge, explore their imagination, cultivate their innovativeness and have fun without expensive tools and excessive investment. Includes robot, batteries, cable and bar code scan sheets.

As high-paying jobs in STEM fields continue to grow, STEM education is high priority in the classroom. Though much of the effort is aimed towards middle and high schools, research shows that introducing STEM early plays a key role in cognitive development and capabilities in these subjects later in life. Much of math and science instruction in schools is abstract and theoretical, and half the job of a teacher is to engage kids in learning these abstract and complex STEM subjects. This Is where Edison Robots presented By HamiltonBuhl® come in.

Affordable and available in single or value-packs for a full class set, Edison Robots are programmable utilizing multiple FREE languages - visual and text based.

EdBlocks– a fully graphical robot programming language that is super easy to use. A drag-and-drop block-based system, EdBlocks is intuitive and fun, even for younger users. Perfect for introducing anyone to programming, EdBlocks is ideal for students 7 to 12 years old.

EdScratch– a hybrid graphical robot programming software (similar to Scratch), combines drag-and-drop graphical icons with increased functionality from text-based entry, making programming fun and easy to learn!

EdPy– the easy to learn, high readability and very popular Python programming language. EdPy teaches a real life programming language and makes text-based programming fun and easy!

Along Edison's face are Lego® compatible plates that allow the Edison robots to be scaled up into sophisticated creations, or even combined and doubled up for a more complicated system.

Each programmable Edison robot is powered by a set of four (4) ""AAA"" batteries (included) and interacts with the world via infra-red (IR) transmitters and receivers, line tracking, barcode reading, playing sounds and music, plus sound detection. It’s also equipped with two motors with variable speeds, left and right red LED lights and three control buttons. One Edison can communicate with another over IR, with the units also able to be programmed by and controlled with TV and DVD remotes.

Built to last, these robots are rugged and tough, suitable for all ages – from K-12 grades, and incredibly enough can still function after being driven over by a car!
