Hands-On Robotics Fun for My STEM Lessons

Setting up myCobot in my classroom was honestly exciting—students were immediately curious to try programming it with Blockly. I really like the dual screens and how easily it connects to joysticks and tablets. The precise motion and fun visual interface make this a standout, but I recommend carefully following the instructions if you’re new to robotics.

An Ingenious Robotic Arm for Creative Learning and Development

The moment I opened the myCobot package, I was struck by how compact and polished the design felt—everything slotted neatly, with the dual screens and modular pieces inviting immediate hands-on exploration. Getting started with Blockly programming through the UIFlow interface was refreshingly intuitive, instantly allowing me to control precise, fluid movements thanks to the high-torque servo motors. My favorite feature is the drag trial teaching: it lets me physically guide the arm through new actions, recording them seamlessly for playback—perfect for building custom automation routines and teaching robotics principles to students with little coding experience.

A Compact Robotic Powerhouse for Learning and Beyond

Upon unboxing myCobot, I was struck by its surprisingly sturdy feel and sleek, modular design—far more professional than typical entry-level kits. The ease of getting started with visual Blockly programming made my first robotics experiment both approachable and engaging, lowering the barrier for hands-on learning. The adaptive grippers and impressive 0.05mm repeatability meant I could quickly prototype real-life automation tasks, experiencing reliable, precise movements typically reserved for far more expensive systems.
