Pando is an emotional robopet

The robot family of OTTO-DIY expands with “remixes” from the community. Pando robot remix came from the DFRobot community by the user Ironpanda, it has the peculiarity to use a led matrix to create expressive emotions and a gyroscope to feel it’s orientation. The robot will get angry if turned down and happy if picked up in the hands!

STEAM fill the gap between tech and people:

There are still many elements of the technology that remain inaccessible to people, this is largely because there is a disconnection between understanding the rules and restrictions of the machines themselves and how users can design and ultimately program.  STEAM Projects, like this, put a playful twist on educating the increasingly curious makers around the world today filling the gap.
