Testimonials and Reviews
I am in love with Petoi robots because they are fully programmable, very fast, and have lots of endurance.
High school students loved to program Bittle because Bittle is in a dog form. Natively, students knew about dog movement and liked to emulate those movements on Bittle. They also found it easy to use the Skill Composer to create new robotics skills.
Our Robotics & AI Lab is using Petoi legged robots for robotics research and kid robotics camps. They are fun, affordable, agile, easy-to-run experiments. We tried bigger quadruped robots, but they were so clumsy to control and required a big area to run in.
I’m assembling Argo (my Bittle’s name), and starting with Arduino in Linux. I MUST make my compliments !!! Really a good job! I can't imagine how many hours you spent on the code and designing the body of Bittle.
In Italian we say: OTTIMO LAVORO !
