‘Seeed studio’ -‘M-A-R-K – Make A Robotic Kit’ – STEM Toy to help kids learn and build toys using Artificial Intelligence

MARK, short for Make A Robot Kit, is designed around a Kendryte K210-based machine vision module and an Arduino-compatible baseboard. With this AI robot kit, users can have the hands-on experience of constructing and assembling an AI robot car and implementing artificial intelligence technologies such as image recognition, object detection, computer vision, and automated self-driving controls. MARK simplify the learning process and help beginners get started with machine learning, computer version in a more enjoyable way.

With this robot kit, users can have the hands on experience of constructing and assembling a robot, before implementing artificial intelligence technologies such as image recognition, object detection, computer vision and automated self-driving controls.

This robot kit’s mainboard (CyberEye) supports both Codecraft graphical programming and Micropython text programming.

Support Graphical programming / Micropython Coding
Supports Graphical programming
We want AI learning to be accessible to those from a variety of backgrounds so you’ll be able to code MARK graphically by dragging and dropping code blocks.

Supports Micropython
MaixPyIDE from SIPEED – More advanced users can choose to directly write code for MARK using MaixPyIDE. The cyberEYE mainboard’s K210 chip has Microython firmware which features openMV support.

Once users have completed the assembly of a MARK, with guidance from our project-based tutorials, they can gradually write custom programs for their own smart applications, developing their skills and understanding of programming and artificial intelligence.

Interface board – Markduino

Included are stepper motor & spare servo ports which you could utilize to extend MARK as a robot with a grabber or conveyor functionality. The Markduino also includes spare Digital, Analog, and I2C ports, into which you can easily plug & play some compatible Grove series sensors. Read more about grove here. Those familiar with Arduinos will notice that the markduino pinout fits, so projects can be implemented with this controller too.

  • Learn coding & robotics through fun projects
  • Get Started with AI recognition & On-device model training with Ease
  • Learn basic self-driving car functionality like lane following, traffic sign identification
  • Durable Aluminum Body with Built-in 2.4″ color Screen & Pan-tilt camera
  • Rich Free Course Materials for Machine Learning and Autonomous Driving
  • Accessible Yet Intelligent: Support Scratch 3.0 Based Graphical Coding Software & Micropython
  • Easy Assembly, Hands-on construction
  • Customizable, extendable & open-source 

As a stem toy, this robot kit’s mainboard (CyberEye) supports both Codecraft graphical programming and Micropython text programming. Once users have completed the assembly of a MARK, with guidance from our project-based tutorials, they can gradually write custom programs for their own smart applications, developing their skills and understanding of programming and artificial intelligence.

Easy Assembly, Hands-on Construction Experience

For a Hands-on construction experience, MARK will come disassembled in parts with the tools you need to make your robot.

Codecraft: Scratch 3.0 Based Graphical Coding Software for Beginners

We want AI learning to be accessible to those from a variety of backgrounds so you’ll be able to code MARK graphically by dragging and dropping code blocks.

Codecraft is a graphical programming software based on Scratch 3.0, developed by us which is available on desktop & in-browser. Codecraft will support MARK AI functions in drag and drop code, as well as enabling you to see what the MicroPython code would look like. Simply connect and then click upload to start using your MARK with it’s edited program. If you’re confident with your coding skills you can also go ahead and edit text-based Python code in Codecraft. You can even use your own custom models through Codecraft.
