Product Information

I think most kids would be absolutely thrilled to receive this and it would give hours of enjoyment. Robot behaves fine without (although functions are somewhat limited) but app works in mysterious ways, you can get it talk or blink its eyes, refuses live commands or occasionally with massive time delay, will not accept coding at all. By signing up you agree to Crafty Arts Ltd using your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. The kit includes a rich variety of interchangable components allowing you to transform the robot how you please, while the illustrated manual provides a wealth of information about electronics so children can become a robot expert! Once we downloaded the app we did struggle to get the app to work as it should but I’m not sure whether this was me and not being great at technology.

The only thing I would say is to make sure you keep the menu safe as you’re definitely need to refer back to this numerous times to make sure you’re programming it right. You can have fun planning your robots route to face exciting challenges with your friends, to look for metals with a magnet and to perform many other amazing activities. With the REAL TIME function the child can remotely control Mio Robot through a smartphone or tablet as if he were using a remote control. The app’s graphics are designed for being user friendly and for being used without any difficulty and intuitively by children older than 8 years.The recommended age is for eight years plus but I think this is something more suited as a family activity and she thoroughly enjoyed building this with her dad. Thanks to two infrared sensors situated on its belly, the robot detects how close an object is and moves towards or away from it depending on its distance.

You can use the microphone to command it by simply clapping your hands, while the push-button panel on the robot's back can be used to programme its route.
