For the first time, TEKS include product specific standards for robotics arm, highlighting the importance for the students to take part in and understand Industry 4.0 is the current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing technologies that will shape their future. It provide hands-on Computer Science for students and brings coding to life.
Dobot Magician integrates programming, mechanics, electronics, and automation. It’s a great STEAM teaching device that strengthens knowledge across multiple subjects, through a high precision and user-friendly UI. It also provides, enjoyable functions, and unlimited developing possibilities. Dobot Magician’s captivating and exploratory experience increases interest in science and technology.
The advantages of high precision (0.2mm) and switchable tool heads allow students to perform 3D printing, pick and place, write and draw, and more. Combining these different uses brings out even more fun, learning, and creativity through unlimited possibilities. Also, Dobot Magician is the first robotic arm that is 3D print accessible to schools and students.
The Dobot is a versatile platform that can be programmed using Blockly, Apple Swift Playgrounds, Python, C/C++, Arduino, Android Studio, Java, C#, Visual Basic and Dobot Studio. The hardware can be extended as well using standard ports that match Arduino, Raspberry Pi and many other off-the-shelf electronics
Dobot Magician is a truly cutting-edge robotic arm that is now available for your STEAM or CTE program. It's a highly cost- effective solution that empowers 21st century skills by unleashing students' creativity.
