Great intro for coding
As an educator and a parent I was pleased that using ArtieMax does not require an app to use. It can be used on any device with a browser and the ability to connect to Wi-Fi. A computer or iPad is best from our experience. Charge Artie for at least two hours. We had the best results when we ensured Artie was fully charged. The loading of the markers , the Wi-Fi set up and the user access were very easy. It was nice to see how many variations there were in level of coder , from beginner tutorial to Java script writer.It was at the point of trying to get Artie to connect with the written code we created on the browser that we hit our first hiccup. The robot can be a little glitchy. It went idle a few times or said it was connected but wasn't responding. With all things technology it takes a bit patience and a few basic tech practices like turning it on and off again ,resetting the Wi-Fi , and just waiting a few seconds for the page to load. These things can get kids easily frustrated. Once we got Artie coding we no longer had any glitches. It did take a bit of trial and error before we got him connected and ready to code.If from start to finish during setup Artie worked perfectly then yes an 8 year old and up could handle the exploration, but having an adult around for trouble shooting isn't a bad idea. As a teacher I would say it is a " productive struggle". Kids will learn some tricks while troubleshooting.The coding was fun once connected. My son really like the almost endless options to create. The tutorial code did a great job of explaining the way each code functioned and how Artie would move. My 9 year old had to really use some critical thinking to create and that's great !Some tips for parents and teachers1.Use a large piece of paper ( think chart paper) until you get the hang of how the commands make Artie move2. Use a touch screen for ease of dragging and dropping codeOverall I learned a lot about coding by testing it out even if it wasn't perfect coding. This is a good intro to code and I would use it in a classroom.

Funcionamiento errático tal como viene (sin actualizar) actualización problemática.

Posteriormente, al cabo de unos tres meses, y aprovechando que me habían dejado un portátil con Windows para hacerle un “mantenimiento”, volví a probar si conseguía actualizarlo, y, eureka, lo pude hacer, y entonces, al volverlo a probar, todos los problemas con la conexión WiFi habían desaparecido, siendo el funcionamiento del robot muchísimo mas estable, con lo que ya si se puede disfrutar con el.
La idea me parece muy buena, ya que permite introducir a los niños en el mundo de la programación, se puede empezar con el mas sencillo, el propio del robot, para continuar con lenguajes de programación visuales como Blockly o Snap!, y si se anima llegando a los lenguajes mas estándares tipo JavaScript, Python y C++, todo esto jugando y con la posibilidad de obtener multitud códigos de ejemplo si nos registramos en la Web del fabricante.
Su funcionamiento ademas no requiere de la instalación de ningún programa, ya que se basa en el uso del navegador de internet, para acceder a la interface de manejo y programación del robot.
Es aconsejable disponer de una cartulina de generosas dimensiones para poner encima las hojas donde hacer los dibujos, a ser posible hoja A3, para evitar el riego de manchar con los rotuladores la mesa de trabajo, ademas si usamos dicha cartulina se puede estar usando el robot sobre el suelo sin que las juntas de las baldosas imposibiliten su buen funcionamiento.
El manual viene en ingles, pero se puede descargar la versión en castellano desde la pagina Web del fabricante.
Cuando lo recibí tenia un precio de 132 €, algo caro, pero ahora a menos de 50 €, es un precio muy razonable para las características y posibilidades del producto
