No Products in the Cart
Arduino EDU has made many updates and improvements to the original Tinkerkit Braccio robot to create Arduino Braccio ++. These include:
Yes, the new kit allows for both remote and in-class use. The online educational platform and content can be accessed from wherever students are, as long as they have an internet connection. The kit also includes all the hardware students need for the lessons and projects.
Arduino Braccio ++ includes an online learning platform with educational content. The content is structured with a how to get started section, four lessons, and three projects.
The lessons are meant to be taught chronologically, as students will need to apply their previously learned knowledge to the next lesson.
The content includes teacher notes, activities, and challenges for the students which follow the main topics inside the lessons, building up in complexity one after another.
To use Arduino Braccio ++, students need basic programming knowledge and should be familiar with Arduino.
Up to three students can use the kit.
The content comes with four lessons and a getting started guide. The lessons teach students about the different components included in the kit. Students will learn how to use the different features of Arduino Braccio ++ and how to solve problems related to the components.
After going through the lessons, students will learn about topics related to the basic movements possible by Arduino Braccio ++, such as motions and forces, kinematics, manufacturing processes, torque, gear ratio, and control. Students will be able to use the buttons, joystick, program-specific movements, modify the position of the motors, and craft final positions for Arduino Braccio ++.
In contrast with the lessons (that focus on the separate components of Arduino Braccio ++), the projects integrate the components to the whole assembly parts of the arm. Students apply what they learned during the lessons and build their knowledge on how the assembled Arduino Braccio ++ works.

Educators also have access to our self-support feature, which provides access to the help center articles available in the content platform (see the “help” bubble in the bottom right corner).
