TTS Tactile Reader Pro, Build and Debug Algorithms for Blue-Bot, Loti-Bot and Tuff-Bot the Rugged Robot Coding Toy Robots Activity Accessories - AV47405
An engaging screen-free device for coding and computational thinking. Children can create sequences by placing the tiles in order, each representing a different command.
Allows young learners to build and de-bug algorithms for TTS’ Blue-Bot, Loti-Bot and Rugged Robot.
With the included set of standard movement tiles, children can learn to create, troubleshoot and refine their programs. Debugging is simplified as each tile lights up when working through the sequence.
Up to three tactile readers can be daisy chained together at one time using an easy magnetic connection, enabling children to create longer programming sequences.
Using Bluetooth connectivity, the reader is compatible with Blue-Bot, Loti-Bot and Rugged Robot and lights up in a specific colour to indicate which robot is currently being controlled.
Aligned with the UK Computing curriculum from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 2, it supports the development of basic to advanced programming skills.
This innovative tool revolutionises programming education, enabling children to physically map out their coding instructions, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and practical application.
Tactile Reader Pro is compatible with Robots manufactured from 2020 onwards. The date of manufacture can be found on the underside of the robot.
