Blockolino Basic Set

Function and Applications

Programs surround, entertain and support us: They switch traffic lights, play music for us, and even open doors. But how? Blockolino guides your learners in answering this question. They create their own programs in no time and use sensors, actuators and Blockly to master the basics of programming in a playful way!

The Blockolio Basic Set offers flexibility for many applications with 5 sensors and 5 actuators. For example, an LED or a motor can be controlled with a button or a simple smart home can be programmed.

Sensors and actuators are magnetically docked onto a LinoLink and supplied with power. Each LinoLink communicates wirelessly (Bluetooth 5.1) with the control center, where the programs are executed. Using software, the programs are transferred to the control center (via Bluetooth or USB).
