Winner Hardware AV/VR/AR Robotics BETT 2022!!
The New Marty V2 makes learning about robotics and coding fun and engaging. Build your Marty, program in languages from simple blocks in Scratch to Python and beyond, learn about sensors, and expand your robot. We’ve got tutorials and activities for all skill levels freely accessible here: https://learn.martytherobot.com/.
Each Marty the Robot V2 includes color sensor, motion sensor, two obstacle sensors, two ground sensors, speaker, charging cable, ping-pong ball, sticker sheets, and a zipper storage case.
NEW FEATURES OF MARTY
- AI/Machine Learning: Now, Marty can teach children as young as 10 years old about AI and Machine Learning, making the concepts more accessible.
- Languages and Translation: Marty's cross-curricular potential has expanded with the ability to translate in over 40 languages. Click here to hear Marty speak.
- Sensor Dashboard: Our Sensor Dashboard allows users to visualize and interact with data collected from Marty's sensors, providing a user-friendly way for students to monitor and analyze data in real-time. Watch a short video here.
- Student-Led Learning: We've developed student-led resources to promote independent learning in classrooms, like these coding activity cards.
- Improved Speaker: Marty now comes equipped with larger, louder speakers, ensuring that even in the most lively classrooms, students can hear Marty's voices, sounds, and music clearly.
- 'Show Code' - This functionality allows users of block-based program, MartyBlocks, to 'translate' their code into Python - to aid the transition from block- to text-based coding. To check it out, head to the MartyBlocks environment on our webapp and click on 'show code' at the top.
- Disco Martys - All Martys now come with Disco LED eyes, but the 'Disco' Martys come equipped with programmable LED arms and feet as well. Check out the Disco Marty Classpack product page and you can find the product images here.
- Math Materials - We've developed some math lessons, covering the math concepts in the document attached. There's strong evidence to suggest that coding improves performance in math-related subjects. Here are some ways to show how.
Marty has a personality and is full of character!
2 - Unique Walking Mechanism
Walk, turn, dance, sidestep, kick a ball, wiggle
3 - Range of Expressions and Disco Eyes
Marty’s eyebrows move to express emotions
4 - Motors with Position Sensors
Nine metal-geared smart servo motors (in legs, arms & eyes)
Infrared (IR) Sensor & Color Sensor for screenless coding
6 - Quality Moulded Plastic Parts
Classroom-ready, robust and built to last
7 - Acceleration & Tilt Sensor
Found in the control board in Marty’s head
With run time of 2-3 hours when fully charged
Marty speaks and plays sounds
Our mission is to ignite a passion for learning
In conceiving Marty the Robot, Dr Alexander (Sandy) Enoch’s objective was to create a real, human-like robot that his niece could use to make learning the basics of coding more like child’s play and less like hard work.
Putting his inventor skills to use, Sandy designed and built a walking, dancing, eyebrow-wiggling robot that got his niece’s seal of approval. Since then, Robotical has sold over 7,000 robots that can be found in over 65 countries around the world, moving and grooving to Scratch and Python.
Our mission is to make STEM engaging and accessible for all
- Unique Movements:
Walking, Dancing, Turning, Kicking. Marty’s unique leg design makes a swagger like no other Robot
- Interactive sensors:
With an array of sensors including position, tilt, proximity & force, and a built in speaker, Marty can talk and play sounds, feel, and even shake hands
- Coding for all abilities:
Program Marty with Scratch, Python, Javascript, and even up to professional level with a Raspberry Pi and the ROS Robot Operating System- with a camera your Marty could play football autonomously!
- Expandand & Customise:
Marty likes learning new things. Add extra sensors (temperature, noise, light and more), a camera, disco LEDs, grabbing hands, a Raspberry Pi computer, or 3D print your own custom parts!
- And so much more!
In addition to core Marty the Robot features, this pack of 5 robots also includes:
- 1 Battery Charging dock with 5 slots
- 10 Batteries
- 1 Distance Sensor
- 10 Infrared (IR) Obstacle Sensors
- 5 Colour Sensors
- Printed Educators Guide
- Stickers to customise each robot
- Coloured Coding Cards for Screen Free coding
