Edison Robot V2.0 Education STEM EdPack1 Meet Edison is a Cheap Programmable Educational LEGO bricks compatible - Robotics Edison has LEGO studs and holes to suit both LEGO bricks and LEGO technic pieces

This has been a sanity saver over lockdown. Has kept the kids busy for hours. They can also build on it using their existing Lego. Many options of programming and lots of ideas and tutorials available online.

I teach with a variety of programable robots (Spheros, Mini Spheros, Ozobots, mBots, & Tello) so I was initially fairly sceptical about the Edison. Have been pleasantly surprised at how versatile it is and I do like the simplicity of the edscratch block language.

Given the ever changing platform of technology, the Edison is an extremely neat way for kids to apply the practical sense of coding physically. My nine year old has not stopped experimenting with Edison and the add-on pack, the coding part is creative and the joy from seeing it do what its programmed to do is great. I advised him to add this to his Minecraft under water pyramid where the octopus is able to hunt invaders, using gears to circulate the character. Lego is awesome and I'm flabbergasted with the creativity that comes from kids. The Edison can extend this creativity to better heights of imagination. Highly recommend enrolling the...view more Given the ever changing platform of technology, the Edison is an extremely neat way for kids to apply the practical sense of coding physically.

Highly recommend enrolling the kids into coding classes to get the most out of your Edison combined with Lego. PB Tech the cheapest deals and add on value packages get a thumbs up from me.

A good robot. Basic Programming A good robot. Basic Programming

I really loved the idea of this but the data transfer mechanism (sound) is just buggy and unnecessary in the age of micro-USB or Bluetooth or USB-C or any other reasonable data transfer standard. Fail.

Bought this product to use at school with my class, but is an excellent toy for my own children too. Highly recommend, especially at the price PB sells it!
This is an especially good choice for a child who is interested in robotics and lego as the studs on it fit perfectly with all major brick systems using this stud type (yes I tried!). I will probably buy another one and the extension kit in the future as this has turned out to be a winner!

My class loves using the Edisons and with EdScratch, EdScratch jnr and barcodes they can be used at many levels of the school. The students are totally engaged when using the Edison and have been quick to learn how they can control what it does.

This clever little robot can be programmed in a number of ways. Three languages using a computer edblocks, edscratch and edpy. Edscratch is similar to scratch that is taught at code club in schools and transfers code from the screen into the real world. The Edison has built in sensors and can be programmed to do lots of things. You can also program it by driving it over a special bar code (free download). It has Lego holes and studs so can be used to move models built with your favourite toy building brick. There are lots of videos on You Tube. These little robots are brilliant and excellent value. Recommend to all. This clever little robot can be programmed in a number of ways. Three languages using a computer edblocks, edscratch and edpy.

The students in class are loving these- a very robust little robot that helps students get started with the basics of coding and programming for a reasonable price. The kids love the ability to create around it using Lego and to be imaginative in their creations. the add on kit allowed them to construct new robots from the basic machine. Love the guides available onlne to help them (and me) understand how to use these great little robots.

The product is well priced. It has all of the required features built in for for operating a basic robot such as light sensitivity and obstacle detection. It serves as an excellent introduction to programming since it can be programmed using both a block language and Python. In a classroom situation it is robust and not easily damaged. Its online documentation is second to none.
The missing final star is due to two facts: inter-robot communication using infra red is somewhat unreliable and no programmable attachments can be added.

Great fun for a class activity. Using basic scratch program you an instruct you car to move. I could see us having hours of fun with this across all age levels...just wish our small country school had the budget for a set. Great fun for a class activity.

Hours of fun here. And educational. Hours of fun here. And educational.
