DFRobot Maqueen micro:bit Educational Programming Robot Platform

Hello, my name is Maqueen and I am a graphically programmable robot. The mini robot offers interesting features and is plug-and-play. This allows children to quickly learn graphical programming to spark their interest in science and logical thinking. You can do the robot's graphical programming using the online editor, where you will also find many example codes for the robot. Maqueen is also accessible on the Mind+ programming platform. Mind+ is a Scratch 3.0-based graphical programming platform from DFRobot that supports Python, Arduino, and other programming platforms. Currently, Mind+ is applied to all kinds of sensors, modules, and related learning products.
