Normally, a cybernetic pooch like this one would cost north of $300, but some Black Friday deals are dropping early as part of the Every Friday is Black Friday event — so keep an eye out next Friday for more early releases. Grab a Petoi Bittle for just $269 while they’re still in stock.
Teach a robot dog new tricks with the power of coding
Normally, Bittle comes disassembled, but this deal lets you skip to the fun part. This pre-assembled pup was funded on Kickstarter and comes with a STEM and robotics kit to help your young one learn to program some really impressive tricks. They’ll learn to code four-legged walking gaits, locomotion, and kinematics behavior all using Scratch, C++, and Python.
It may sound like a lot for a young learner to take on, but Scratch is a programming language specifically developed for kids. Once they’ve got that down, learning Python and C++ may be a lot easier. After you’ve configured the remote controls using the Bluetooth connector, you can use Bittle completely wirelessly.
This little robot dog can manage some complex motion using its spring-loaded legs. And there’s even more you could do using a Raspberry Pi or Aduino ecosystem, but those are sold separately.
A robot dog that could help your child learn to code
If you’re trying to find a gift that’s educational and fun, this robot dog has nearly endless options for customization. Don’t wait for Black Friday to get a Black Friday price on the pre-assembled Bittle Robot Dog at just $269 (reg. $339).
