The Robobloq 'Q-Dino' robot is an educational solution for children aged 10 and up that will offer them a way to get started with coding in a fun, interactive manner.
The kit comes with more than 230 pieces that can all be used to create either a dinosaur or crocodile robot, depending on preferences. Once assembled, the robot can be coded via the accompanying app to perform an array of movements and tricks; the drag-and-drop interface ensures that children can quickly pick up the process without the need for formal lessons beforehand.
The Robobloq 'Q-Dino' robot is based on an Arduino and features a graphical programming interface to make it suitable even for users without a science or technology background.
