“I love using Dobots in the classroom! These are by far the easiest and most accurate robotic arms that I have seen for the price.
I teach computer manufacturing and normally have students build miniature factories in the classroom. However, with this year being almost 100% remote learning, I had to get creative. I set up the Dobot Magician arms in front of the computers in my lab with a dedicated webcam. Students remotely controlled the school computers from their Chromebooks at home and used the webcam to see the Dobot respond as they programmed it. It was amazing to see students still learn and apply their new skills to control the Dobot arms remotely, and they loved it!”
What did the students have to say?
“My favorite thing to do was Robot programing because we could control a robot from home and it was so amazing!”
“I prefer Robot programing because it was cool to control the robot from your home and it was fun to see the robot move the cubes.”
“We can use the robot arms from home. That was amazing!”
“I prefer robot programming because to me is more fun and when watching the item move to the destination makes me feel accomplished.”
