Robo Live vs SAM Root

Our latest app combines our previous apps into one coding environment to provide you with the best Robo Wunderkind experience. Our app still provides three coding levels - Live, Code and Blockly - to match all levels of ability and coding skill. For ages 5 and up; prior coding experience is not required, neither are reading skills. Prototype, design and build your robot with our color-coded building blocks in just a few minutes and use our app to bring the robot to life! To start off, we provide you with 19 interactive tutorials. A truly hands-on experience for children, teachers and parents that transforms learning about technology and STEAM into a fun game.

SAM Root makes it easy and fun to learn programming through hands-on robotics! With three progressive coding levels—from graphical blocks to hybrid blocks to Python 3 syntax—you’ll be building real coding skills and controlling robots in no time. MASTER CODING WITH 3 LEARNING LEVELS No coding experience? No problem! SAM Root meets you where you are and grows with your skills: - LEVEL 1: Graphical Blocks – Start with drag-and-drop, graphical blocks to grasp the fundamentals of coding logic—no reading required. - LEVEL 2: Hybrid Blocks – Transition into more advanced coding structure with blocks that blend visuals and coding script. - LEVEL 3: Python Code Blocks – Discover the structure and syntax of professional coding languages with full-text Python 3 code blocks. SEAMLESSLY SWITCH BETWEEN LEVELS Change coding levels anytime with a tap. SAM Root automatically converts your code, so you can match your skill level and learn the professional Python syntax behind each block. CONNECT TO ROOT ROBOTS Pair with a Root coding robot via Bluetooth and bring your programs to life! Control movement, lights, sounds, sensors, and more—while watching your code run in real time. TEST WITH THE BUILT-IN SIMULATOR Use the built-in 3D simulator to test your programs, speed up execution, and try new ideas—all without needing hardware.
