Decabot Robot & Code Domino language
Virtually Maker Faire 2020
May 22nd-23rd
Decabot is a low-cost robotic platform designed for those interested in educational robotics to build, customize and adapt their own robots at home, in their school, college or community.
A Decabot consists of a laser-cut chassis (MDF, acrylic, PVC, etc.) measuring exactly 10 centimeters in width, height and length (around 3,9 inches). It is a cubebot! Its versatile design allows the user to work with a diversity of different sensors, shields, motors and actuators, with little or no adaptation. The robot is designed to work with the Arduino UNO platform, but it can accept different controller plates in UNO format (including ESP boards, such as Weimos).
Decabot is the first robot compatible with a tangible programming language called Code Domino accessible to children and beginners in programming. However its possible to program it directly in the Arduino IDE interface, through the C language.
