Meet the Robots
Dash
Kids can watch their virtual coding turn into tangible learning experiences in real time as Dash, with its performance and multiple sensors, interacts with and responds to its surroundings.
Dot
Share in moments of wonder as you interact with Dot’s endearing personality while coding, creating, and customizing games and activities.
Cue
The award-winning Cue robot is designed for kids who have an interest in coding. Cue will help them transition from block-based code to state-machine and text-based programming.
The Apps
With Wonder, programming concepts become tangible and intuitive. Kids create traceable paths of code, which help them see and understand what their robot will do—as well as when and why—in a way that traditional code cannot. With Wonder software, kids can also program the robot to do multiple tasks in parallel. It's an expressive, powerful, and fun tool for robots.
Blockly introduces fundamental and advanced coding concepts through playful projects and puzzles. Kids learn about coding by exploring variables, events, conditionals, and more.
The Cue app is full of challenges and example programs that show students how to program Cue in fun and creative ways!
