Edutech BLE – Robotic Control for the Edutech Blocks Platform
Edutech BLE is an educational application developed to control Edutech Blocks robotics projects via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) communication. With it, students, teachers, makers, schools, and social projects can interact with robotic cars, ESP32 boards, sensors, actuators, and other connected devices in a simple, practical, and intuitive way.
The application allows you to control the Edutech Car using BLE commands, facilitating educational robotics, programming, automation, and Internet of Things (IoT) activities. The solution was created to make learning more accessible, eliminating technical barriers and allowing any environment to be transformed into a robotics lab.
In addition to controlling the robotic car, Edutech BLE has a BLE chat area where it is possible to send and receive data between the application, the ESP32 device, and the Edutech Blocks platform. This functionality allows you to test commands, view responses, track information sent by sensors, and work on concepts of communication between software and hardware.
The app's purpose is to integrate the use of mobile devices with the Edutech Blocks platform, allowing students to program, record, control, and monitor their projects in a way that more closely resembles real-world practice. The application can be used in robotics, programming, physics, mathematics, technology, maker workshops, and educational innovation projects.
Edutech Blocks is a Brazilian educational technology solution created to simplify the teaching of robotics, programming, educational computing, and IoT. The platform allows the creation of projects with ESP32, sensors, motors, servos, actuators, displays, and connected devices, using visual blocks, a C/C++ editor, cloud compilation, supporting applications, and tools for teachers and students.
With Edutech Blocks, schools and teachers can apply practical activities even in environments with limited infrastructure. The solution was developed to reduce the need for complex laboratories, dedicated computers, or difficult installations. In many scenarios, a cell phone or tablet is all that's needed to start robotics and programming experiments.
