Robot PU is a 6-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) humanoid robot designed by Robot Gyms Inc [1]. for STEM education and AI learning. Built primarily on the micro:bit ecosystem, it serves as a programmable platform for students to explore robotics, 3D design, and artificial intelligence.

Key Features

Robot PU are pre-programmed with following interactive features:[2]

Bipedal Locomotion: The robot has six degrees of freedom, allowing it to walk with 2 foot and to balance with its weighted head.

Auto-pilot Mode: It has sonar distance sensor in chest and has auto-navigation features for obstacle avoidance and maze-solving games.

Entertainment and Dance: It has programs to allow the robot to dance in synchronization with music. Users can program to change dance routines.

Competitive Sports: The robot comes with a gamepad, which can remotely control the robot to perform interactive games such as robot soccer, designed for collaborative and competitive play.

Programming and Design

The robot software is open-source and supports a variety of development paths for learners, players, and developers with different skill levels:

Microsoft MakeCode: Beginners can program the robot using block-based and JavaScript coding via a MakeCode Extension for Micro Bit.[3]

MicroPython: Advanced users can implement complex algorithms and AI functions using MicroPython.[4]

Customization via 3D Printing: The robot is maker-friendly with mounting kits. Upgrade examples can be found in Tinkercad classes.[5]

Educational Curriculum

The robot is the centerpiece of the "The Saga of Robot PU" camp series, which focuses on various STEM themes. [6]
