how do you learn about robotics well the best way with a robot we'd like to introduce you to Marty a fully programmable and customizable walking robot for kids for makers and for educators Marty's not your standard smart toy he's designed by roboticists to be a real robot that you can do some really cool stuff with while being as fun as a toy you can use Marty to learn about robotics programming electronics and mechanics or you can build your own stuff with a walking robot that will hold a Raspberry Pi and which you can customize with 3d printed parts Marty's not like other walking robots his unique three motor and spring leg design lowers costs but also makes him easier to use and his battery lasts longer he can walk turn kick a ball and of course do funky dances marty is Wi-Fi enabled so you can remote control or program him from your phone or computer you can also download apps or games other users have made from our robot App Store Marty lets you learn real programming on a real robot start off with scratch where the coding is as simple as clicking and dragging blocks you can make a dance routine or start interacting with the environment when you're ready you can move into Pikeville a powerful but easy-to-use programming language but robotics is way more than just programming Marty lets you learn about all kinds of things motor control balance sensors mechanical design and more mighty is really customizable and upgradable the electronics make it easy to add all kinds of sensors and motors and they'll even support the whole computer like a raspberry pi add a camera and you could even program him to play football all the parts are 3d printable so you can make whatever you can imagine Marty started out and has a side project during my PhD I've got nieces and nephews who are starting to get to the age where they can play with robots but I couldn't see a walking robot Tori there was more than a novelty or at least not when I could afford so i made one we could actually use marketing to help teach robotics at university but this is easy to use as any other time also as a maker i wanted a walking robot that i could use as a base to build cool stuff with I've spent the last year and a half working on this little guide and now we're ready to go from functional prototype into a real kit that you can buy we've spoken to manufacturers and we know how to do it but we need your help to make it happen please help us make Marty a reality the future is here and with it robots but building your own robot can be overwhelming and unintuitive not anymore
