What You Get When You Choose SnappyXO
SnappyXO Kits
For high school students, we recomend purchasing our SnappyXO Advanced Robotics Kit. This kit includes computer coding so students can build their robot and program them to do many different things. We include a bluetooth modules which can connect to any smart phone and drive their robots.
Curriculum
We provide standards-aligned curriculum so educators do not have to worry about an added workload when purchasing our kits. Our curriculum comes with worksheets and challenges so the students will be constantly engaged in interesting activities.
Apps
Engineers use CAD (Computer Aided Design) software to create products virtually before they physically prototype them. MotionGen is the world’s first planar mechanism design and motion simulation software.
