Description
The micro:bit Maqueen is a robot platform that is designed to be used with the micro:bit, a small computer that is commonly used in education for teaching programming and other technical concepts. The Maqueen is intended to be an easy-to-use platform for STEAM (science, technology, engineering, art, and math) education, with a focus on helping students to learn graphical programming in a fun and engaging way. The robot is small and portable, making it easy to use in a variety of educational settings, and it is designed to be simple to operate so that students can focus on learning programming concepts rather than on the technical details of the robot itself. Some potential educational applications for the micro:bit Maqueen include teaching programming concepts, developing problem-solving skills, and encouraging creativity and innovation.
The micro:bit Maqueen robot platform is now accessible through the Mind+ programming platform, which is a graphical programming platform developed by DFRobot. Mind+ supports a range of programming languages, including Python and Arduino, and is designed to be easy to use and accessible to a wide range of users, including students and educators. By making the Maqueen robot platform accessible through Mind+, DFRobot is providing users with a convenient and intuitive way to program and control the robot using a graphical interface. This can make it easier for students and educators to get started with programming and robotics, and can help to foster a greater understanding of the underlying concepts and technologies involved.
