Explore Code and Unleash Creativity with iRobot Coding

Join a learning journey powered by robots with the iRobot Coding application. With over 30 years of experience in building and programming robots, we are excited to bring you this innovative platform where you can learn to code with friends.

A Whole New Way to Discover Coding

iRobot Coding is designed to take you on an immersive journey through the real and virtual worlds of robotics. As you progress, the app adapts to your skill level, starting with graphical coding for beginners. You can then advance to hybrid coding, which combines visual blocks with text-based scripting, and finally to full-text coding using Python, a powerful programming language. This progressive approach ensures that you are always challenged and engaged, whether you're learning for school, career preparation, or just for fun.

Three Learning Levels for Every Skill Level

iRobot Coding offers three distinct learning levels tailored to different stages of coding proficiency:

• Graphical Blocks: Perfect for beginners, this level uses drag-and-drop, graphical blocks to teach fundamental coding logic without requiring any reading skills.
• Hybrid Blocks: As you become more comfortable, advance to hybrid coding blocks that blend visual elements with coding scripts, enhancing your coding fluency.
• Full-Text Blocks: For those ready to dive into professional coding languages, this level introduces the structure and syntax of full-text coding.

Seamless Transition Between Learning Levels

The iRobot Coding platform includes an auto-level converter that seamlessly translates your programs across all three learning levels. This feature allows you to build upon your skills effortlessly, ensuring a smooth progression from beginner to advanced coder.

Program SimBots and Control Real Robots

Take your coding skills to the next level by programming SimBots in virtual arenas. Alternatively, connect the app to your Root® coding robot to see your code come to life. Customize and control your Root® robot to perform various tasks such as driving, drawing, detecting, lighting up, playing music, and much more. Visit edu.irobot.com/root to get started.

Engage in Hours of Activities

The app provides countless hours of engaging activities that support individual, one-on-one, and group learning experiences. Whether you prefer structured tutorials or want to create your own coding adventures, the Learning Library has something for everyone.
