Blue vs 1

Blue-Bot is one of the many loved members of the TTS Floor Robot family. The Blue-Bot app enables you to write an algorithm, send it and then Blue-Bot will follow your instructions. There are numerous features, which make writing algorithms both fun and educational. Use explore mode to develop algorithms: Step by step programming. Drag and drop programming. Include repeats to add efficiency. Program 45 degree turns. Challenge mode will add complexity into the algorithm: Blue-Bot will add random obstacles, adding complexity to the algorithm needed One or even two directional buttons can be removed Children can also record themselves saying a command and can assign it to a button on Blue-Bot. As the algorithm progresses, they will hear themselves giving the instructions. Please note to control a Blue-Bot floor robot your device must have Bluetooth.
