Introducing the Blue-Bot Swarm

- a Bluetooth Programmable Robot Class Pack

You can program Blue-Bot with a wide range of tablets, a PC, Mac, or our very own TacTile Reader. The tablet app features a host of programming challenges and problems for children to solve by constructing the correct program.

Blue-Bot Swarm is a set of 6 Blue-Bots and also includes a docking station, allowing you to charge 6 Blue-Bots at the same time so you don't need to worry about storage or batteries, just pop Blue-Bot back on the dock and it'll charge ready for its next adventure!

Blue-Bot can now interact with another Bee-Bot or Blue-Bot and say "hello" or students can record their own message. Students can also record audio to play back when each button is pressed (e.g. a different sound for forward and a different sound for backward), making it more accessible to all students, including those with auditory or visual processing needs.

Blue-Bot is well suited to supporting a number of aspects of computing. It can be used to help pupils:

  • Understand what algorithms are, how they are implemented as programs on digital devices, and that programs execute by following precise and unambiguous instructions
  • Design, write and debug programs that accomplish specific goals, including controlling or simulating physical systems; solve problems by decomposing them into smaller parts
  • Use sequence, selection and repetition in programs; work with variables and various forms of input and output. Use logical reasoning to explain how some simple algorithms work and to detect and correct errors in algorithms and programs

Blue-Bot Rechargeable Programmable Floor Robot

Blue Bot has several buttons on its back that help control and connect it via Bluetooth to your device. By programming their clever new robots remotely, students can use the command keys to send Blue Bot in any direction across the floor (forwards, backwards, left and right), whilst also being taught counting, sequencing and estimation in a fun, problem-solving setting.

Blue-Bot’s Features

Blue Bot has functionality like never seen before. It can manoeuvre 45 and 90 degree turns, allowing children across Australia to program Blue Bot to construct a variety of drawings and shapes, as well as travelling through complex pathways. Its sturdy shell is incredibly durable to the inevitable classroom mishaps, and the translucent structure permits students to actually see their programs ticking away inside the intricate components of Blue Bot’s technological brain.

Blue-Bot’s own app

The Blue Bot app is completely free, and available for download to all devices in Australia via the Apple Store for Apple products, the Google store for Android, and with Windows and Mac software in the Terrapin Downloads section.

Upon opening, you will find that the app has a detailed ‘explore mode’ which places children in front of varying degrees of fun challenges and puzzles, in which they can use their robot to complete and consequently learn all the delicate secrets of computer programming.
