Bring your HP Otto robot to life with the Emote Builder Kit. Designed to inspire creativity and develop coding skills, this expansion allows you to program Otto with expressive animations, reactions and interactive behaviours, making every project more engaging and personal.
Instead of simply moving around, Otto can express emotions and personality through a combination of visual effects, sounds and programmed responses.
Using beginner-friendly coding software, you can program Otto to:
Create expressive robot personalities
- Display happy, sad, excited and surprised expressions.
- Show animated faces and custom LED graphics.
- React differently depending on events in your code.
- Celebrate success with lights and sounds.
- Create unique personalities for your robot.
Design interactive projects
The Emote builder kit is ideal for building projects such as:
- Interactive storytelling robots
- Classroom demonstrations
- Dancing and musical performances
- Quiz hosts and game companions
- Robot pets with their own personality
- Celebration and countdown projects
- Creative coding challenges
Learn through play:
As children create their own expressions and behaviouts, they'll naturally develop key programming skills including:
- Event based programming
- Conditional logic (If/Else)
- Sequencing
- Variables
- Creative problem solving
- User interaction
Perfect for STEM education
The emote builder kit encourages children to think beyond simple movement by designing robots that communicate through animations, sounds and programmed reactions. It combines coding with creativity, helping learners understand how robots can interact with people in fun and engaging ways.
Compatible with the HP Otto ecosystem
This expansion kit works alongside the HP Otto starterkit and can be combined with other builder kits to unlock even more exciting robotics projects.
Perfect for children and adults gifts for Christmas or Birthdays.
