With a Fable educational robot kits, you can teach programming, robotics and innovation in middle school, secondary schools, even at university level.
All educators can loan a Fable Standard Set for 30 days, without any deposit or binding.
Easy to Programme
Robots have to be programmed to do something. It’s easy for pupils to start programming using a simple blocks-based language. Moving on to textual language, the sky’s the limit for what an experienced pupil can do
The programming interface is divided into different levels depending on the pupils’ level of competence, from very simple visual programming with Blockly, over more advanced visual Blockly programming, to powerful textual programming with Python. This helps pupils to gradually progress. It’s also possible to perform simple data processing on the interface with graphs,, or to log data to files for later processing, e.g. in MS Excel. The interface provides an easy-to-understand introduction to get started.
