Codey Rocky - Hours of fun and STEM learning guaranteed!
Codey Rocky, the entry level robot from the Makeblock robot family, is a smart tool that facilitates a good understanding of coding, backed by logical reasoning and creative experimentation.
Ideal for beginners in coding, this self contained robot effectively combines easy to use robotic hardware with the visual block based programming software mBlock 5.
This robot is a dynamic combination of
Codey - the detachable main board that has more than 10 electronic modules. This is basically the controller with different sensors and a programmable main control. It can be used as a standalone to teach tasks.
Rocky - the chassis that can work only with Codey. Codey, when linked with Rocky, is equipped to perform more complex tasks, avoid obstacles, recognise colours, follow lines etc
Codey Rocky comes with a detachable display that can be connected to the mBlock 5 software to control your scratch/block based games. You can even expand/customise your robot by connecting more blocks to the connectors along the sides.
This easy to use robot helps beginners from ages 6 and up, take a tentative foray into the world of coding, compose their first ever code with effortless ease, explore and master advanced coding and stay on top of their AI and IOT game!
The salient features that set Codey Rocky a class apart
Expressive LED display
With more than 10 programmable electronic modules, Rocky Codey gives you the option to use codes to customise the large LED screen to display time and date, update daily weather, customise expressions etc
Solid software
The mBlock 5 programming software is based on MIT's visual programming software Scratch 3.0. So, a simple drag and drop action will set the stage for beginners to start coding.
As this versatile software supports AI functions like voice recognition, mood sensing etc, you can add IOT functionality to the robot and control home appliances, detect soil humidity, manage online passwords etc
In short, with Codey Rocky, children have a fun way to get familiar with AI and IOT functionalities.
Coding Games...a breeze
As Codey comes with a built in 6 axis gyroscope, you can easily control the games you code, by tilting or moving the controller. The Integrated colour sensor/grayscale sensor/IR distance sensor gives you the leverage to adjust the angle of the module for obstacle avoidance, colour detection etc
Compatible with Makeblock Neuron
As Codey Rocky is compatible with Makeblock Neuron and LEGO bricks, you can easily realise any novel ideas you come up with. Pogo Pin connectors on both Codey and Rocky allow for extensions with Makeblock Neuron blocks.
One click Switch to Python
With Codey Rocky, one click is all it takes to turn your visual/graphical code into Python code! How cool is that?! This way you can continue learning an advanced language by programming the sprites and hardware with the professional code editor.
Wireless Upload
The optional Bluetooth dongle gives you the wireless freedom to communicate your new coding ideas to your Codey Rocky. If you prefer, you can use your usual USB cable to upload codes.
