About this app

The IORover is a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) product, a modular, customizable, easy-to-repair car with discrete components that allows better handling, its entire structure can be modified or extras added.

IORover is mainly aimed at children between 9 and 17 years old

IORover is made up of 3D printed parts, plates cut with a laser or a mill, screws, wires, motors, a battery and an electronic board for control, an application for Android, IOS and Desktop phones, which can be changed or completely remade using Html, Css and JavaScript.

With IORover, several components can be explored such as;
- Fine motor skills, when assembling the structure,
- Mathematical concepts reflected in the gear system where forces are multiplied, converting speed into force (lowering revolutions per minute and increasing torque),
- Knowledge of electronic components, microcontrollers, energy, polarity and motors,
- Programming at the APP level where they explore various concepts such as sending and receiving instructions, communication protocols and programming an interface for control and feedback
- Creativity in terms of APP layout and Rover decoration
- 3d modeling that can be used to modify structural parts or create variants
- Vector drawing to change or create parts/plates of the structure
- Additive and subtractive manufacturing, working with 3d printers and fangs or laser cutting machines
- Gaming, IORover has a game and competition component - ROVER League, an analogy with the famous computer game “Rocket League”, in which at least 2 IORovers are placed in an arena with two goals and a ball, the purpose is to see who scores the most goals using IORover.
