Customer Reviews
Got this for my sister for birthday, a 17 year old high school student with great interest in engineering and computer science. The product itself do need assembly but is vey well presented, all components were neatly organized and easily recognizable, it was a pleasure seeing my sister put them all together. And that was just the start. ( which did take half day, I believe they do have pre-assembled version)
She immediately dive into the coding part of the fun, software came with the product was easy to use, With builtin bluetooth and USB modules, and a remote, you can unlock all kinds of possibility, which opens unlimited potential. you can rewrite any part of the code you want because it's open source, it's small yet strong.
I highly recommend the Petoi Bittle robot dog kit to anyone interested in learning robotics or engineering.
I always wanted a robot dog to try out quadruped robotics. I dreamed about owning a Boston Dynamic spot mini or Sony Aibo. But those are just too expensive. I was skeptical about this Bittle dog given its price, even its videos look impressive. So I got the pre-built version. It's fun out of box with all the built-in commands.
The performance is very good given the price. It can walk fast but with a lot of stability. The backflip and frontflip tricks are truly amazing. It can even get back up by itself if it's upside down.
The programming support is good. I did some C++ programming and used Petoi's desktop app to build some new skills. The app is a time-saver. It lets me visually move servos to create new skills.
This is not a toy for everyone though. It's more like a smart robot for geeks. I did run into a few problems, but I got help from the documentation and Petoi's support.
My son loved his new little friend. Didn't take long to housebreak him and learning a lot of basic commands like, sit, stay, give high fives and best of all sleep on command. It all came tumbling down when he bit our mailman. The police showed up along with the local animal rescue league and they took possession of him and then put him down.
