HP - OTTO Starter Creator Kit

The HP OTTO Starter Creator Kit takes robotics education to the next level by allowing students to design, 3D print, and assemble their own custom OTTO robot. This open-ended approach encourages advanced prototyping and personalisation while introducing students to key elements of digital manufacturing. Packed with all necessary electronics and designed for seamless programming across multiple platforms, this is an ideal kit for future engineers, designers, and coders.

Educational Benefits:

• Supports 3D printing and design for digital manufacturing skills.
• Develops hands-on coding and engineering proficiency.
• Encourages iterative thinking and personal creativity.
• Bridges the gap between design technology and robotics.

Classroom Ideas:

• Integrate into 3D design lessons by modelling OTTO's body before printing.
• Host a robotics showcase where students present their unique designs and code.
• Use sensors for automation projects and real-world simulations.
• Create coding pathways that integrate music, motion, and light interaction.
• Explore collaborative builds where students combine roles (designer, coder, builder).

Product Specifications:

• Requires 3D printer to customise external parts; all electronics included.
• Supports coding with Scratch-style blocks, Python, and Arduino (C++).
• Equipped with motors, sensors, LEDs, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity.
• Recommended for ages 8+ (supervised), 14+ independently.
