MiRo-E Duo Pack

Make STEM Come to LIFE!

Imagine your students interacting with a friendly robot that they have programed themselves and learning problem solving along with coding and other STEM topics.

MiRo is an animal-like advanced robot designed to help students learn about STEM subjects, particularly computing and digital technologies. MiRo-E has been built on years of technical research and multiple MiRo iterations! MiRo-E is jam-packed with a wide range of sensors, significant degrees of freedom of which many provide MiRo-E’s excellent expressive communication abilities and more.

Why is MiRo-E right for your classroom?

MiRo-E’s robust hardware is optimized with 10 degrees of freedom, a wide sensor array, and Wifi/Bluetooth connectivity. MiRo-E provides unparalleled interaction with students and their environment.
The user-friendly interface gives students a unique workspace to follow a curriculum or test their own code on a simulated MiRo. This can then be run on the Raspberry Pi within the physical robot, allowing several students to develop their own behaviors using a mix of established text and block-based programming languages.
MiRo-E’s engaging pet-like appearance stands out from other educational robots and immediately stimulates students’ imaginations. They learn how to code, implementing their creative ideas through the highly featured platform.

MiRo-E is an emotionally engaging biomimetic robot companion optimized for use in learning coding, education, research, and therapy. A highly featured platform with the versatility to aid students in learning the basics of programming all the way through to advanced users producing practical applications. MiRo-E has now evolved for education!

The Pack Includes:

  • Two MiRo-E Robots
  • 2 Charger Modules
  • 2 Battery Packs
  • 2 Service Kits
  • MiroSim Software
  • User Manual
  • 1-year Warranty & RobotLAB Support

What’s inside?

Basically, MiRo-E is comprised of a Raspberry Pi 3B+ as its core, light sensors, cliff sensors, an HD camera, and a variety of connectivity options.

Miro-E specs

This pet-like bot reacts to sound, touch, and movement in a variety of ways. 28 capacitive touch sensors tell it when it is being petted or stroked. Six independent RGB LEDs allow it to show emotion, along with DOF to move its eyes, tail, and ears. Its ears also house four 16-bit microphones and a loudspeaker. And two differential drive wheels with Opto-sensors help MiRo move around.

MiRoCode is a user-friendly web-based coding interface, where students can run through lesson plans and experiment with new ideas. They can test code on the simulated robot and create new skills that can be applied to a real-life MiRo-E.  Take a look at the student interface:

Miro-E Student Interface

What age group is MiRo-E suitable for?
 This version has been specifically developed for education, including:
  • A classroom pet in early school learning [pastoral care model].
  • Primary schools using the simple-to-grasp MiRoSim interface.
  • Secondary schools use Blockly, C++, and Python programming languages.
  • Special Educational needs.
  • Research into therapy for age-related issues.
  • We would suggest students below age 7 interact primarily with the physical bot (to explore simple STEM, Robotics, Engineering, and Programming concepts), and students older than 7 start utilizing the MiRo educational interface.

MiRo-E comes with a rechargeable battery pack and an inline charger.  The battery life varies with usage, but it is approximately 6+ hours active and 12+ hours standby.

We recommend purchasing this product from RobotLAB.  For over a decade, RobotLAB has been leading the Educational Robotics market with an innovative approach that makes Robotics and VR truly useful in the hands of educators.  RobotLedicated to making robots smart and useful, supporting businesses and educational entities in their journey into the 21st-century user experience.
