RoboArm

roboarm.jpg (60614 bytes)

RoboArm is a high-tech robotic arm that students program to enhance comprehension in math and science concepts.  RoboArm rotates on 5 axes and incorporates end-of-arm tools for flexibility in classroom activities.  Movement in degrees reinforces basic number sense.  Using curriculum integration materials, students can explore and discover concepts on their own.  They experiment, see spatial relationships, and create and solve equations.  As a result, scientific and mathematic concepts come alive as students "do" science and apply math.  In addition, hands-on activities provide a wealth of opportunity for students to improve problem-solving and critical thinking skills.

RoboArm can be programmed using the Teach Pendant or our easy-to-master, intuitive computer language.  RoboArm's software is available in Windows or MAC format.  Low system requirements accommodate older computers, increasing the useful life of computer hardware.
