December 12, 2016 by Power Pulse1595211359

The 1.25 inch Evo from Ozobot was awarded PC Magazine's 2016 Editor's Choice and named one of the "coolest toys" by CNN Tech. Kids can learn to code with colors using markers, paper and Evo's universal color language. And with the OzoBlockly editor, it's possible to drag and drop blocks of code to take full control of your Evo and create even more complex interactions.

It is possible to stay in touch with OzoChat worldwide messaging (gated for ages 12 and under) and Ozojis—emoticons Evo acts out. Switching to remote control mode in the Ozobot Evo app (for iOS and Android) harnesses Evo’s surprising speed, insanely bright lights and quirky personality.

EVO digital accessories include: Ozobot Evo App that includes games, chat, social zones and more (compatible with most iOS and Android devices); and OzoBlockly Web Editor, a Block-based introductory to advanced programming for controlling everything from Evo’s lights and sounds to proximity sensing.

Using the Ozobot Evo app to connect with friends enables OzoChat worldwide messaging to send and receive Ozojis — special messages of joy, sadness, surprise and other emotions that Evo acts out. There are three ways to experience Evo: Let Evo act autonomously. Guide app-enabled Evo with your smartphone or tablet. And Program Evo beginning with the basics with color codes on paper, then learning block-based programming with OzoBlockly.
