this would be a really good way to get kids into robotics! 🤖

@petecashmore While I kept warning excited parents and kids that "Nooo, it's not for small kids!" 😂 I guess with proper guidance they can learn a lot!
Pete Cashmore
@petoicamp pretty sure this is something you buy and *say* it's for the kids 😂

@petecashmore @su_kaygun_sayran1 Mindstorm is good for prototyping, but is not optimized for specific tasks.

That's cool, as I see from Indiegogo page it's possible to code via arduino/codecraft/etc ides. Will there be any done frameworks specifially for your robots?

@ayydayuming Yes, we will provide basic drivers for the dog in the format of Arduino and Python codes.

@petoicamp Glad to hear it, nice

Interesting. Are the parts of the shell plastic or some kind of metal?

Maker
@dvlden They are injection-molded plastic with a good balance of strength and elasticity.

This is great! How long can the battery last in active play?

@damionp It can last one hour for continuous walking (not running).

Looks great! Python SDK would be awesome.

@sattu Yes, we already have a Python module to communicate with the motion controller board.

It's so interesting. Where can I buy this and does it have multilanguage support?
Rongzhong Li
Maker
@dspjm It's successfully funded (11 times the original goal!) on Kickstarter and continues on Indiegogo: igg.me/at/bittle. We will first provide English instructions then translate them into other languages.
