Children of preschool age, or early childhood education, can already begin to take their first steps in robotics by learning basic concepts of logic and coding, such as programming trajectories or teaching the robot to avoid obstacles. These toys are a first introduction to the world of robotics. They do not need applications for mobile phones or computers, since the programming is done with keys or by assembling pieces. Recommended age: + 3 years.
Basically, and trying to use the shortest and clearest definition possible, we can consider robotics as the set of technologies that allow the creation of machines capable of performing certain tasks.
These tasks can range from the most basic to the most complex. When we tell a machine to move in a straight line, we are actually already programming it to do a certain thing. In other words, we would already be talking about robotics.
Educational robotics for children would therefore be teaching the child the skills and knowledge necessary to create this type of machine, which for him will be nothing more than toys, since another fundamental aspect is that it it should be entertaining.
Robotics requires knowledge in many areas, from design and mechanics to electronics or programming, logic and mathematics. In addition, this knowledge must be above all practical, applied to reality. For this reason, robotics is taught as a complement or practice to other subjects.
