Marty the Robot V2 – the walking, dancing, coding companion
The New Marty V2 makes learning about robotics and coding fun and engaging. Program your Marty in languages from ScratchJr and simple blocks in Scratch to Python and beyond, learn about sensors, and expand your robot.
Unique movements: Walking, dancing, turning, side stepping and kicking. Marty’s unique leg design makes a swagger like no other robot.
Interactive sensors: With an array of sensors including position, tilt, proximity & force, and a built-in speaker, Marty can talk and play sounds, feel, and even shake hands. Marty comes with IR Obstacle Sensor and Colour Sensor as standard.
Coding for all abilities: Program Marty with Scratch Junior, Scratch, Python, and even up to professional level with a Raspberry Pi and the ROS (Robot Operating System). With a camera, your Marty could play football autonomously!
Expandable & customisable: Marty likes learning new things. Add extra sensors (temperature, noise, light and more), a camera, disco LED lights, grabbing hands, a Raspberry Pi computer, or 3D print your own custom parts.
A REAL WALKING ROBOT!
Marty can walk, balance on one leg, sidestep, turn, dance, kick a ball and so much more.
