Let children experience the fun of handcraft experience Sony toio ™ Creative robot kit

Last year, Sony launched a set called toio ™ Creative robot kit, with special theme "Gesundroid ™” It can enable children to understand the relevant knowledge of biological bionics and robots at the same time, and get inspiration from it. It can use bionic robots to solve problems in daily life, and can also perceive the changes of life in the intelligent era.

As an old player of Lego, Gunda models, handmade toys and other toys, as well as Sony fans, and an old father of a fourth grade child, the author recently bought a set of toio with a taste of new things ™ Creative robot kit and working organism Gesundroid ™ Special theme.

So is this creative robot that combines teaching with pleasure suitable for children to play? Today I would like to share my own experience with you.

Play with the children after 00 and 10 with their mobile phones《 Glory of Kings 》Egg Boy Party is different. In our childhood, almost all "toys" were made by ourselves. For example, slingshots, match guns, kites, fishing rods, etc. At that time, several children gathered together to share their experience, and then made toys step by step through their hands. This sense of happiness and achievement is difficult for children to understand at present.

And toio ™ Creative robot kit matched with working organism Gesundroid ™ The theme is to let parents and children find fun by combining paper-cut manual work with modern intelligent robots.

This kit contains a console, two ring handles "control ring", two program cards, and two square robots with wheels called“ toio ™ Core Q Treasure "and some accessories.

The console is equipped with a small black and white LCD screen, which can display the basic status, some settings and system updates. The two square grooves on the left and right of the console are the base for charging the core QBank. The lower part is equipped with a program card slot, and the lower left and right sides are respectively equipped with volume adjustment keys and power switch keys. The white bar in the center of the LCD can be regarded as the menu key or Home key.

After starting the console, we will set two toios ™ Turn on the power key below the core Q Treasure, and you can see the connection status of Q Treasure on the LCD screen. After connecting to the console, the corresponding icon will become the power icon shown in the following figure.

toio ™ The core Q treasure can be controlled through the control ring as shown in the figure below. There are four keys on the white grip of the control ring, and numbers 1, 2, and 3 are directly marked. The number 4 key is located in the inner ring area of the blue and green direction keys.

Originally, I thought that the direction keys of the control ring were not as easy to use as the cross keys of traditional game consoles, but I was really worried about it after I used it. It is very sensitive and accurate to control the front, rear, left and right directions of the core Q Treasure. After I get familiar with it, I can also control without obstacles with my eyes closed.

In free mode, or in a specific theme of "working creatures", we can use these two control rings to control the core Q treasure.

Working organism Gesundroid ™ The special theme is toio ™ One of the six themes of the creative robot kit, in addition, Sony toio ™ Also launched the "Play music together Picotong clan ™”、 "Strategy Arena ™”、 "Toio mini steering wheel ™”， It aims at cultivating children's musical literacy, hands-on innovation, decision-making ability and rule awareness in various dimensions of brain development. There are also two programming themes "Start! Explore the programming world ™” And the newly released "Start! Explore the programming world ™ Education Edition, mainly for schools and educational institutions.

Working organism Gesundroid ™ The core play is: refer to the tutorial to do manual work; Then connect the manual work with Qbao to create various "working creatures", and then you can interact with "working creatures" by tapping, using control rings and other ways to explore more fun ways to play.

This kit will be purchased with a series of paper-cut manual drawings, as shown below:

The production method, playing method and control method of each "working creature" have been written in the book as shown below. The overall production difficulty is not high, and the 9-year-old children of my family have no obstacles to play.

Let's take the "foot man" as an example to see the toio ™ How to play the creative robot kit?

First, find the corresponding drawing number as shown in the tutorial, and then cut out the drawing with scissors.

The production method of the foot man is very simple. After cutting it off, stick double-sided adhesive tape on the "sole of the foot", and then stick the two legs together with Q Bao.

The first time I did it, I didn't have any experience, but I glued my leg into a T-T

After gluing, open the console, and you will be simply prompted about the playing process.

After that, turn on the power of Qbao, scan the corresponding program scanning position on the manual book, and hear the corresponding role (footman) in the console voice to indicate success.

If you ignore it for a long time, the foot person will enter the "rest" state shown in the figure below. At this time, tap Q Bao with your finger, and the foot person will immediately stand up.

The procedure of the foot man is mainly to walk with two feet. As can be seen from the following figure, the walking posture really conforms to the three words of "bionics", and the walking is modeled.

When walking to the edge of the pad, the footman will stop immediately, and then make a handsome turn. Therefore, even if the pad is located at the edge of the table, there is no need to worry about it falling off the table. How about it? Is it amazing?

The simplest of all handicrafts is the "inchworm" shown below. Just cut out the rectangle and stick its two ends on the Q treasure.

The inchworm is a general term for the larvae of Lepidoptera chiroptera. "Walking" will arch the middle of the body, that is, wriggling forward.

The inchworm mimics the way the inchworm moves. When it is tapped with its hand, it will show some timidity and fear, which can be said to be quite vivid.

The inchworm walks as shown in the figure below, and its movements are exactly the same as the real inchworm. Therefore, through this handicraft, children learned about the inchworm and how it moves forward.

The eyeball creature is also a very interesting scheme. Stick the lower part of the eyeball together with Q Treasure, scan the program diagram on the book, and hear the console say "eyeball creature".

At the same time, another Q treasure needs to be pasted with the corresponding eye sticker of the bait insect, and then scanned on the bait insect program diagram on the right side of the eyeball biological program diagram. At this time, you can experience the play of "eyeball creature".

It can be seen that when the bait insect appears around the eyeball creature, it will immediately lock the bait insect and enter the attack state.

If you move the bait insect in a fast circle, the eyeball creature will always chase and lock the position of the bait insect, which is very interesting.

The spade beetle monster is also a very interesting handicraft. Make the big pliers of the Shovel Armor Monster through paper cutting, and scan the corresponding programs to experience.

The way to play between the shovel beetle and the bait insect is to use the control ring to control the bait insect to touch the front end of the shovel beetle's pliers. At this time, the shovel beetle will lock the bait insect. The player must use the control ring to control the direction of the bait insect to avoid the chase of the shovel beetle. If he has dodged four times, he will be successful.

If unfortunately caught by the Shovel Armor Monster, the Bait Bug will issue a specific sound effect prompt to indicate failure.

The winged ladder worm seems to be a simple scheme, but it is difficult to play. Its production process is very simple, that is, cut out the small wings shown in the figure below, and paste it on the Q treasure.

The simplest way to play is to gently tap the Q treasure. At this time, the winged ladder worm will slowly accelerate its rotation. The more advanced way to play is to use the control ring to change the direction of its rotation. After skilled manipulation, the cushion can be divided into four areas. Through precise control, the winged ladder insects can complete the movement around the obstacles in four areas. So it seems simple, but in fact, it is quite difficult after adding some playing methods.

Piaopiao squid is the funniest and cutest scheme I think. Its production process is relatively complicated, but after it is finished, it moves like a real squid and is very cute, which makes you feel that the time spent before is worthwhile.

·Conclusion

Nowadays, most of the children's happiness comes from electronic equipment. The opportunity to really do their own handwork and toys is basically the 40 minute class in a week at school, so that many children today are far less skilled and imaginative than the post-80s and post-90s generation, not to mention the older generation's ability to do things.

Sony launches toio ™ Creative robot kit and special theme "Gesundroid ™”， It combines paper-cut handicrafts with intelligent robots to teach children how to use their hands, learn about the state of some biological movements, and cultivate curiosity. In addition, adults can put down their mobile phones and join children in the production process.

Generally speaking, if you also have children at home and want to exercise their practical ability, thinking ability, curiosity and creativity, then toio ™ Creative robot kit and special theme "Gesundroid ™” It can be said that it is a very good choice.
