描述

Thymio II是Mobsya的Educational-Robots。 面向教育设计。 关键数据：0.3 kg、续航 120 分钟、2011 年发布。

Thymio II, now usually just called Thymio, is Mobsya's small open-source educational robot that fits on a desk and lets anyone, from about six years old upwards, discover robotics and programming. Designed by researchers from EPFL with ECAL designers and marketed since April 2011, it comes assembled and works out of the box: pressing its centre button starts six pre-programmed behaviours, such as following a hand, avoiding obstacles or following a line drawn on paper. It measures 11 x 11.2 x 5.3 cm and weighs 270 g, and senses its surroundings with 9 infrared proximity sensors with a range of about 10 cm, 5 capacitive touch buttons, a three-axis accelerometer, a thermometer, a microphone and an infrared remote-control receiver. 39 controllable LEDs, two DC wheel motors with a top speed of 14 cm/s and a speaker are its outputs, and a 3.7 V, 1,500 mAh Li-Po battery charged over micro-USB gives more than 2 hours of autonomy. It has a micro SD card reader, a hole that holds a pen for drawing, a hook for towing and LEGO-compatible attachment points, and is programmed through Thymio Suite in VPL, VPL3, Scratch, Blockly and Aseba, or with Python and ROS. The Wireless Thymio adds an 802.15.4 radio module and a USB dongle for cable-free programming. Its hardware is open source under CC BY-SA 3.0.
