Playfully programming robots: Mindbreeze inspires young explorers as part of the Upper Austrian Children's University
Released on July 9, 2024
Mindbreeze was again part of this year's KinderUni Upper Austria and organized the course "From computer to robot" in Linz.
The two experts Manuel and David introduced children ages seven to nine to the world of robots. The children got to meet and play with the three humanoid NAO robots Bob, Eve and Linus.

After a brief introduction to Choregraphe, the program for controlling the NAOs, the children were allowed to trythemselves. After splitting into two groups and with the help of the experts, they "programmed" different movement sequences for the robots. The children made Bob, Eve and Linus dance, walk, sit down, stand up and even tell jokes.
