Highlights:

The Edison robot that you know and love just got even better! Introducing Edison V3!!

Here is a short list of the most significant Edison V3 improvements.

Rechargeable Battery:

With over 60 minutes of continuous driving time, students can now engage in extended learning experiences without the worry of running out of power (or the hassle of changing batteries mid-lesson). The inclusion of an internal rechargeable battery enhances convenience, promotes uninterrupted learning in the classroom and importantly, it helps the planet. The internal rechargeable battery is also replaceable, so Edison V3 won’t become e-waste after the battery reaches the end of its life.

USB Programming:

Edison V3 connects directly to a computer via USB. Simplifying the setup process and ensuring a more stable connection making programming a seamless experience for both beginners and experienced users. The USB cable is always ready to go as it is attached and tucks away neatly.

Charging Options:

Edison V3 can be charged from any USB-A powered source. For the ultimate classroom charging solution, the new *EdCharger allows for the simultaneous charging of up to five Edison V3 robots, streamlining the classroom experience even further.

*EdCharger sold separately.

Curriculum or Lesson Topics:

Coding education for all ages and skill levels

Edison’s robotic capabilities can be unlocked with ease through simple barcode programs. Students can then progress through three different programming languages as their skills increase.

Four Ways to Code Edison; From Basic to Advanced:

Barcodes - Ages 4+

Edison scans unique barcodes to activate pre-set programs in the robot - the perfect screen-free way for anyone to kick-start learning with Edison

EdBlocks - Ages 7+

Intuitive and fun, EdBlocks is a fully graphical programming language which uses simple drag-and-drop blocks, making it ideal for introducing anyone to programming.

EdScratch - Ages 10+

Easy drag-and-drop programming with powerful functionality and versatility, EdScratch is a robust platform for computer science education.

EdPy - Ages 13+

Text-based EdPy teaches students the core of a real-world programming language, empowering them to explore robotics and coding at a more advanced level.

Lesson Plans and Teaching Resources

Teaching coding, computational thinking and STEAM using Edison robots is easy with our free teaching resources. All of the Edison programming languages have complementary teaching resources including lesson plans and teacher guides plus complete student activity-sheet sets. The student-centric lessons, written at grade-appropriate reading levels, encourage independent learning through engaging, hands-on activities.
