Makeblock Codey Rocky - Interactive Robotics and Programming

£140.00

Innovative Design
Curriculum Aligned

Programme an interactive robot through drag-and-drop blocks or Python code. Codey Rocky comes ready to use—no assembly required. The controller (Codey) snaps onto the wheeled chassis (Rocky) to create a programmable robot with 10+ sensors including sound, light, gyroscope, color detection, and LED display.

Use mBlock software to create programs that make Rocky follow lines, avoid obstacles, detect colors, or respond to sound. Switch from block-based Scratch to Python with one click. Compatible with LEGO bricks for custom builds.

What's included:

Codey controller with LED display
Rocky wheeled chassis
USB charging cable
Color identification cards

Suitable for children aged 6 years and up

Further Information

What's Included: Codey controller with LED dot matrix display, Rocky wheeled chassis, USB charging cable, color identification cards, name stickers, lanyard, quick start guide with 24 CSTA-aligned lessons.

About the Brand: Makeblock creates educational robotics and STEM tools for ages 4-18. Their mBlock software (based on MIT's Scratch 3.0) is used in schools worldwide, providing a pathway from visual blocks to Python programming.

How It Works: Codey (the brain) contains all sensors and programming. Rocky (the chassis) provides motors and wheels. Snap them together to create a mobile robot. Programme using mBlock 5 on computer, tablet, or Chromebook via Bluetooth, WiFi, or USB. Upload code wirelessly or control in real-time.

Sensors & Modules: LED dot matrix display (expressive faces), speaker, RGB LED, buttons, gear knob, sound sensor, light sensor, 6-axis gyroscope and accelerometer, infrared transmitter/receiver, color infrared sensor, dual DC motors (250 RPM).

Programming Progression: Start with Scratch-style visual blocks (drag and drop commands). One-click conversion shows the Python equivalent. Switch to Python mode to write text-based code. Supports both block-based and Python simultaneously for learning transitions.

AI & IoT Features: Built-in WiFi enables Internet of Things projects—get weather data, control smart home devices, send messages. AI functions include voice recognition, face recognition (requires external camera), and mood sensing. Introduces advanced concepts accessibly.

LEGO Compatibility: Connection points compatible with LEGO Technic bricks. Children can redesign Rocky's chassis, create new bodies for Codey, or integrate with existing LEGO collections. Also works with Makeblock Neuron modules (sold separately).

Learning Resources: 24 pre-built lessons aligned with Computer Science Teachers Association (CSTA) standards. Free mBlock app includes gamified tutorials. Online support center provides additional projects and cases. No subscription required.

Battery & Runtime: 950mAh rechargeable lithium polymer battery (included). Runtime 1-2 hours depending on usage. Charges in approximately 1.5 hours via USB cable (included).

Platform Compatibility: Works with Windows, macOS, Chromebook, iOS, and Android. mBlock 5 software free to download. Bluetooth dongle (optional accessory) enables wireless code upload to computers.
