Frequently asked questions
What ages is this robot for?
See the age-range spec. Block-coding robots suit younger learners; text/Python-capable models scale into high school and beyond.
Do you need to know how to code?
No. These start with drag-and-drop block coding and graduate to JavaScript or Python, so beginners and advanced students both progress.
Does it need a phone or computer?
Most pair with a free app on a tablet, phone or computer for programming and updates; some run lessons standalone.
