We are HP Robots’ Authorised Partner for UK Schools!
A customisable, self-build, affordable robot which offers children the chance to design, 3D print, build and then control their first functional robot.
Otto is available as a 3D printable robot or as a pre-made, ready to build robot.
Take programming further, earlier!
Get started with the basics of electronics, engineering and coding, extending functionality by customising the robot through 3D design and expansions.
Create
Design and 3D print your own Otto!
Customise everything from functionality and colours to style, adding functionality using Otto’s range of 3D printable features. 3D printing templates and guides are available online!
Otto is available as a 'Creator Kit' to allow students to 3D print the outer parts or as a 'Builder Kit' to simply open the box and start building!
Connect
Build your Otto from scratch, including the electronics!
Learn the basics of electronics and engineering to complete your Otto build, following clear instructions and learning about each stage as you go along!
Clear instructions are provided which can be used in lessons, presented in a clear, logical and visual way.
Code:
Experience 3 coding experience: Control, Blocks and Text
With accompanying teacher resources, youwill be led on a coding journey, mastering computational thinking and perfecting your grasp of block coding.
Using these, your Otto can be controlled and programmed using Python and C++ coding language, to truly become a tech creator!
