About

This project involves the development of a robot programming educational kit called "PaperRobots", designed for summer holiday craft projects. Using everyday materials like cardboard, families can enjoy assembling robots together while learning programming. Only the essential electronic components are provided, with the remaining parts designed to be easily created at home, encouraging parent-child communication. This project was carried out by a team of three members, with the technical aspects such as robot design being primarily my responsibility.

How it works

Materials and Assembly

The robot parts are created by cutting out pre-printed templates pasted onto cardboard. The design minimizes cutting requirements, making it easy for beginners to assemble. Electronic components are provided pre-soldered by PaperRobots, removing the need for complex tasks and allowing anyone to start effortlessly.

Programming Learning

A visual programming environment is used, enabling beginners to intuitively create programs. By simply combining blocks, learners can control the line tracing robot. With video guides on YouTube, step-by-step instructions cover everything from robot assembly to programming.
