About iRobot Coding
With over 30 years of experience building and programming robots that empower you to do more, now you can learn-to-code with your friends at iRobot too.
Discover coding in a whole new way with iRobot® Coding, the app that lets you travel between the real and virtual world of robots. Designed to grow with you as your skills progress, beginners can start with graphical coding before advancing to hybrid coding, followed by full-text coding in the powerful programming language Swift.
Whether you’re learning to code for school, as career preparation, or simply for fun, iRobot® Coding gives you a personalized coding experience that continually evolves with your skills.
MASTER CODING WITH 3 LEARNING LEVELS
New to coding? No problem! Learn at your own pace with three developmental Learning Levels.
• Graphical Blocks: Begin with drag-and-drop, graphical blocks to learn the fundamental logic skills of coding—No reading skills required!
• Hybrid Blocks: Build upon your coding fluency by advancing to hybrid coding blocks, which feature a mix of graphics and coding script.
• Full-Text Blocks: Discover the structure and syntax of professional coding languages with full-text blocks.
SEAMLESSLY SWITCH CODE ACROSS LEARNING LEVELS
Build upon your skills by using the iRobot® Coding platform’s auto-level converter to instantly translate your programs across all three Learning Levels.
CONQUER CODING CHALLENGES WITH SIMBOTS
Program SimBots in virtual arenas for an entirely App-based learning experience.
CONNECT TO AND CONTROL REAL ROBOTS
Pair the App with your Root® coding robot to watch your code come to life! Innovative technology allows you to customize and control the Root® robot to drive, draw, detect, light up, play music, and more!
DISCOVER HOURS OF ACTIVITIES AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
Train your brain with hours of activities that support individual, one-to-one and even group participation. From free tutorials to ready-to-go code and beyond, explore our Learning Library or create your own coding adventures.
