Petoi Bittle – A Palm-Sized Programmable Open Source Robot Dog for STEM Learning and Fun
Coding, STEAM, STEM, Robotics Learning: Build and program your Bittle to perform new skills and tricks while harnessing all aspects of STEM learning. Begin with Scratch block-based coding and advance with Arduino IDE, C++, and Python. Develop your motor skills, physics, engineering skills, and problem-solving abilities.
- DIY your robot is an excellent and challenging hands-on learning opportunity to assemble your robot with 3D puzzle parts. It is suitable for adults and children over the age of 12.
- Program AI tasks: program Bittle to see, listen, sense the surrounding environment, and navigate the world with the optional intelligent camera module or other Arduino/Raspberry Pi compatible sensors.
- Open Source robot: Bittle operates on OpenCat, an open-source quadruped robot platform published on Github that fuses multiple gadgets into one organic system, offering endless programming and customization possibilities.
- The World’s First Palm-sized, Servo-activated Robot Dog
- * Dimensions: 200 x 110 x 110mm(7.9 x 4.3 x 4.3inch); Weights: 290g(10.22oz)
Programmable Artificial Intelligence Robot
- It is built on NyBoard, a board fully compatible with Arduino Uno. Standard Arduino modules can also be attached.
- Raspberry Pi support—It can connect to a Raspberry Pi 3A+/Zero directly. It will power the Pi and communicate with it through the serial port.
- It is built on OpenCat, an Open-Source Project for Quadruped Robots. You can adapt OpenCat for your purposes and run any Customized Version on Bittle.
