Interactive and Hands-on Lessons in Robotics

Students write code, watch Edison respond in the physical world, then refine their ideas. It is a practical way to build computational thinking, problem-solving and confidence.

Ready for beginners

Scan printed barcodes to run preset programs before writing a line of code.

Progressive coding

Move from EdBlocks to EdScratch and then text-based EdPy as skills develop.

Built for making

Connect compatible building bricks on four sides and use removable wheels and skid for new inventions.

Small robot. Serious classroom capability.

Edison V3 brings the sensors, motors and connectivity needed for meaningful robotics projects into a compact, durable platform.

Integrated rechargeable battery with over 60 minutes of continuous driving
Attached USB cable for charging and programming
Obstacle detection, line tracking, light and sound sensing
Infrared communication and remote-control capability
Compatible with Chromebooks, Windows, Mac, Linux and mobile devices depending on the coding environment
Replaceable internal battery to extend the robot's useful life

One robot, four ways to learn

Use the same Edison hardware from first exploration through to more advanced programming.

Instant start

Barcodes

Scan activity barcodes and explore robot behaviour immediately.

Beginner

EdBlocks

Drag-and-drop icon blocks designed for early coding learners.

Intermediate

EdScratch

Scratch-style block coding for richer logic and projects.

Advanced

EdPy

Text-based Python programming for capable students.

Affordable enough for hands-on participation

Edison is designed so more students can work directly with a robot instead of watching one shared demonstration. MindKits quantity pricing reduces the per-robot cost for pairs, groups and classroom sets.
