STEM Robotics R2 – Elementary A SET
The STEM Robotics R2 – Elementary A SET is a programmable educational robot car designed with an easy-to-use and flexible open-source Arduino platform. The robot’s microcontroller includes 4 analog and 4 digital inputs/outputs and features an RJ11 type input for easy and direct connection of additional sensors, ensuring seamless interoperability between them.
The STEM Robotics R2 – Elementary A SET can be programmed with either the R2.bit application available for tablets or the ARD:icon software available for pc and laptop.
Control Features through the R2.bit App
- Reaction to sound, light, and touch stimuli
- Obstacle avoidance through an Ultrasonic sensor
- Line guidance
- Programming the movement of the wheels in different directions
- Production of visual and audio indications
By using the ARD:icon software and the ready-made activities provided, users can delve deeper into the robot’s various functions and take the first steps in programming and computational thinking through a tile-based language.
This set is selected as suitable educational material for primary education in STEM-Robotics in Primary School (grades 1-4) by the Hellenic Ministry of Education.
