The CoDrone EDU is a programmable drone meant for learning in the classroom. Students can program it to take flight with Python or start from the basics with block-based coding. Unique to this drone are its color sensors, the front range sensor, and a bottom range sensor—all of which students can incorporate into code. With a safe and durable frame, programmable lights, and seven different sensors, it is truly an excellent tool for teaching coding and engineering skills.
Get to Know:
Introducing the CoDrone EDU, the perfect drone for any STEAM classrooms. This drone provides open access to code (and sensor data) for talking about STEAM topics and enough durability and repairability to withstand the rigors of classroom use.
Use up to 15 drones per classroom without worries about signal interference. The CoDrone has flexible guards that minimize damage to the drone and the classroom, and it's modular enough so parts can be replaced if needed.
Coding:
Start out with block-based coding to share foundational knowledge about CS or dive right into Python, one of the most popular coding languages today.
The CoDrone has seven advanced sensors packed into this small framework. Kids can control each of these sensors with code to detect information about the environment. They could also program the lights and sounds and indicate when they've detected an obstacle or flown above a certain height.
The controller isn't just for piloting—it can read real-time sensor data and it's also fully programmable. Use code to create your own controls, draw sensor data on the screen, or create your own applications.
Resources:
You'll also get access to free teacher resources, functions guides, tutorals, and lessons.
