What is playbotix ROBOSTEP?

ROBOSTEP is a robot kit from playbotix platform which is suitable for young students and able to apply to STEM lessons. Some advantages make ROBOSTEP different and more efficient than the other platforms,

• Opensource Electronic Hardware: Based on Arduino platform.
• Easy Coding: playbotix Studio – Block-Based Graphical Programming Language.

Block-Based Programming

playbotix Studio is a graphical programming software designed to ROBOSTEP robot. It is a block-based interface which is very easy for the first-step developers. There are highlight features,

• Drag-and-Drop: If you can use drag-and-drop, you can exactly program via playbotix Studio.
• Automatic Path Generating: No wiring between blocks, it helps to reduce coding mistakes.
• Zoom In / Zoom Out: Wide viewpoint for large programs and short viewpoint for focusing some point.
• Copy Multiple Blocks: Don’t create new all, just copy and change some properties.
• Select and Move Multiple Blocks: Switch the program, just drag-select and move.
• Change Properties for Multiple Blocks: Change properties once for all, just drag-select and right-click to modify.
• Add More Functions: Reduce coding by reusable group of commands.
