Product Details
The HaloCode standard kit from STEM education company Makeblock is a wireless single board computer (also known as an SBC) designed explicitly to introduce students to programming and coding. With its built-in Wi-Fi modules, students can easily connect the HaloCode to the internet and explore the applications of simple IoT projects and LAN functionality. Through Makeblock's mBlock programming software, students can learn coding logic through an intuitive and straightforward block-based method, with the simplified method leaving more room for student creativity and intuition to flourish as they learn.
The HaloCode board has a diameter of 45mm, yet despite its compact size it is embedded with a variety of sensors that allow it to be programmed to respond to touch and movement as well as 12 programmable RGB LEDs and more. Its companion software, mBlock 5, makes it easy to get started with HaloCode and learn to code. When supported by the mBlock-integrated Microsoft Cognitive Services, the included microphone module allows students to explore the possibilities of cutting-edge AI technology through speech recognition, from an interactive playmate to a voice-activated device. Using the HaloCode single board computer, everyone can make their own creations, in a easy and fun way!
After grasping how to program with blocks, students can effortlessly convert to Python coding at just the click of a button in mBlock. The relationship between the two languages is displayed, allowing students to further their learning from mBlock to Python, and shows the changes in real time for increased understanding. To explore more imaginative ideas together with mBlock and Halocode, students can code directly in the Python editor, take a step up from text-based coding and empowering creations with higher degrees of freedom, endless possibilities.
