Bittle is a small but agile and powerful robot dog. It is an ideal tool for learning, teaching and researching quadruped robots. With customized Arduino board coordinating all instinctive and sophisticated movements, you can clip on various sensors to bring in perception. You could also inject artificial intelligence capabilities by mounting a Raspberry Pi or other AI chips.

Innovative 3D interlocking parts
Bittle skeleton consist of 3D interlocking parts,which reduces the use of screws and makes it simple and beautiful.
Each component has gone through dozens of iterations of 3D printing. And we use high-strength injection molded parts to provide the best protection to prevent collisions and dust from entering (Bittle is not waterproof however). In the pressure test, the assembled robot can withstand adult stepping on it. You can learn more through the following videos.

Compatible with variety ofprogramming languages
Bittle supports graphical programming, C and Python. Whether you are a beginner or a senior engineer, you can give Bittle "life" in your own way. You can learn about the actions that Bittle can complete after programming it through the following videos.
*To use Python, external components are needed, not included in the basic kit.

Exclusive graphical programming course (16 lessons)
Our professional team of STEM educators has developed a graphical programming course for Bittle.It makes getting started programming for Bittle easy and accessible for everyone.The course assumes basicfamiliarity with graphical programming. If you are a complete beginner, you can start with Codecraft Introduction to Graphical programming course first!

(science teacher)
Now programming education can be said is very “hot”, and the school has also issued corresponding teaching tasks. However, for school teachers without a professional foundation, there are still some thresholds for teach programming, and the daily teaching tasks are relatively heavy and it is difficult to free up to develop their own courses. The complete courses provided by Bittle and TinkeGen solves this problem well. The overall teaching objectives of the course are clear. The knowledge points and interactions of each lesson are also sufficient. Graphical programming greatly reduces the learning threshold.
Amber Farr
(middle school student)
I have been learning programming for quite some time, but in the past, the lessons I had were only focused on writing code, dull and unintuitive in approach. Parents would ask me what I have learned in programming class, but I often couldn’t explain to them in simple words or have anything to showcase. But now through Bittle and with the combination of software and hardware, learning programming is not only full of fun, but also very intuitive.

(technology enthusiast, college student)
I have always liked all types of emerging technology products. I was thrilled after seeing the Boston Dynamics video before, but the high price also discouraged those who want to experience it. Unexpectedly, there are similar products in China now. Bittle supports wired communication methods of I2C and UART serial ports, as well as various forms of wifi or Bluetooth wireless communication. It can be easily programmed to learn it more cool movements. A variety of sensors, and also support the expansion of other boards such as Raspberry Pi, unlocks AI functions. Bittle have extremely high playability. As an entrepreneurial project, it has won multiple awards, and it has achieved millions of crowdfunding worldwide.
Rob Sarg
(senior hardware engineer, father)
Being a programmer and a father, makes me also a half-professional in programming education. My kids always enjoys to review some new technological products with me. At present, there are many kinds of programming learning products on the market, but they usually only support a single programming language. If you want to learn different programming languages, you need to switch between different products and platforms, which is a waste of cost and time. Bittle's product supports graphical programming, Python and C languages. It is very suitable for learning a variety of programming languages step by step. The appearance and movement smoothness is on the high level. The overall structure is very stable.
