Problem
Schools need robotics labs that scale across grades without buying separate hardware for every level.
Solution
A modular kit where one core controller moves from block-based coding to Python, with sensor, IoT and AI add-ons introduced grade by grade.
Technology
- Embedded systems
- Curriculum design
Hardware
- Core controller board
- Sensor modules
- Motor modules
- Wireless module
Software
- Block-based coding
- Arduino IDE
