Sphero RVR + Review, Again?

November 27, 2022 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Okay, I can't honestly say whether or not the RVR that I reviewed almost two years ago is the same as the RVR + that I am reviewing now. Perhaps the only difference is the limited edition blue roll cage and treads, which don't come in the box. (Check the unboxing in our video review, which we filmed again.) So what exactly is the RVR? I've going to assume that it is … [Read more...] about Sphero RVR + Review, Again?

Our Review of the littleBits Space Rover Inventor Kit from Sphero

June 11, 2022 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

So, it would appear that it is time to review another terrific Sphero product, and you might remember when I did the review of the Bolt rolling ball, the tank-like RVR, and the cool Indi car. I'm going to do something that I really have never reviewed with this littleBits Space Rover Inventor Kit. I have reviewed several types of STEM kits before, so much so, that I don't … [Read more...] about Our Review of the littleBits Space Rover Inventor Kit from Sphero

Sphero Indi Review

September 9, 2021 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

So, we had a terrific chance to review another Sphero product, and we have had two successful chances with the Bolt and the RVR. Fortunately, I had the app ready to go, but I didn't really need it (yet) for the Sphero Indi. The Indi is a car, not like in the Indy 500, but a little car that feels like some kind of relative of Thomas the Tank Engine. Basically, you put the … [Read more...] about Sphero Indi Review

Our Review of the Sphero Bolt

December 4, 2020 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

It has been far too long since we reviewed a Sphero product, as it has been about 7 years. If you are not familiar with the company, they make these cool remote control balls as well as other educational toys. This time, I had a chance to review the Bolt. The Bolt is another coding robotic ball, and you can see that in addition to the ball shape, it has an 8x8 … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Sphero Bolt

Digital Learning Toys from Shifu: Orboot and Plugo

March 28, 2019 By Kris Rollins Leave a Comment

Where were these things when I was a kid? If I had cool toys like the Orboot and Plugo, I would have loved learning a whole lot more! Today, we get to review some cool educational toys from the company called Shifu. Shifu Orboot At first sight, this 10 inch globe looks like your basic globe you might have had in your classroom at school. With a smartphone or tablet, and … [Read more...] about Digital Learning Toys from Shifu: Orboot and Plugo

Rocketbook Color and Rocketbook Wave Review

This time we're reviewing a couple of other types that they create. We'll be covering the Rocketbook Color and the Rocketbook Wave. Rocketbook Wave   This innovative notebook is a great gift for the students in … [Read more...] about Rocketbook Color and Rocketbook Wave Review

A Review of Cublets Robot Blocks Twelve Kit from Modular Robotics

March 2, 2018 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

cubelets 12 header alt2w

I have to admit, when I received the Cubelets to review, I couldn't help but compare it to the Makerblock Neuron Inventor Kit that I just reviewed. Is it coming to the point where I'm reviewing a STEM product every week? If so, I'm cool with it. So, let's talk Cubelets. I don't think I could have done this review if it wasn't for my son, because he was really into them. … [Read more...] about A Review of Cublets Robot Blocks Twelve Kit from Modular Robotics

Our Review of the Makeblock Neuron Inventor Kit

February 21, 2018 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Makeblock Inventor kit 1

We have had the opportunity to review a lot of great products related to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) technology before, and the Makeblock Neuron Inventor Kit is up there with stuff from UBTECH as well as LEGO MINDSTORMS EV3. Those are some plugs for my books, by the way, but I wish I had more time to write about the Makeblock Neuron Inventor Kit. … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Makeblock Neuron Inventor Kit

Our Review of the Jimu Robot Tankbot from UBTECH

December 13, 2016 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

tankbot

In case you are wondering, this is a sequel review to our review of the Buzzbot and Muttbot. This is the same robot building kit from Jimu Robot from UBTECH, and you can read my review of that at the link, as well as my comparison to Lego. The Tankbot is one of those robot kits where I am surprised that all the pieces that are in the kit are used, with only a few … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Jimu Robot Tankbot from UBTECH

Our Review of the Jimu Robot BuzzBot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH

December 7, 2016 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

buzzbot

As someone who has written a book about Lego Technic and Lego Mindstorms, I was very pleased to review the Jimu Robot Buzzbot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH. There is going to be a lot of comparison made to Lego, but please keep in mind that the Jimu Robot kits are definitely their own thing. It's like those people who think that Star Trek and Babylon 5 are the same, when they … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Jimu Robot BuzzBot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH

BlueBee Pals Leo the Lion, a Talking Educational Learning Tool

December 7, 2016 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Bluebee Pets

It seems like I am filled to the brim with reviewing educational toys, and this one is the Bluebee Pals. Before I get to the review, I would like to thank whoever sent it to me, because it came to my door without any warning. So here is our review of Leo the Lion. I suppose that the best way that I can describe our Leo the Lion is just compare him to Teddy Ruxpin. Yeah, … [Read more...] about BlueBee Pals Leo the Lion, a Talking Educational Learning Tool

Circuit Scribe Maker Kit Review

December 7, 2016 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Circuit scribe 1

One of the things that I enjoy about being a tech reviewer is that I often get to try out the most unique of products. The Circuit Scribe Maker Kit is definitely one of those items that is difficult to describe, but it could change a generation. The closest thing that I could come up with is one of those circuit/science kits. I remember that my sister had this thing that … [Read more...] about Circuit Scribe Maker Kit Review

Review of the Ozobot Bit

August 27, 2015 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

Ozobot

The first time that I saw Ozobot, it was at CES. There was a table with these little things the size of little bugs oozing around on the table. All I could think about was how cute it was. The Ozobot movies through two micro-motors for some serious maneuverability. As it is, the Ozobot Bit is one of those STEM toys. For those that don't know, STEM stands for Science, … [Read more...] about Review of the Ozobot Bit

Casio PRIZM fx-CG10 graphing calculator with full-color display

November 13, 2013 By Techno_Mark 1 Comment

casio fx cg10

I find it hard to believe that I have reviewed very few calculators in my career as a tech reporter. If it were thirty years ago, the most advanced computer technology was the calculator. The last one was the Casio FX-9860GII Graphing Calculator, and this new PRIZM fx-CG10 has one stand-out feature: color. Think about it. Most calculators that you have ever used are in … [Read more...] about Casio PRIZM fx-CG10 graphing calculator with full-color display

MusicInk allows you to play a piece of paper

October 14, 2013 By Techno_Mark Leave a Comment

What you are seeing in this video is the MusicInk, an it is quite interesting. I highly suggest watching it so you can see something that is difficult to describe. This is how it works. You can use the MusicInk to paint something, and then connect it to an Arduino Duemilanove board and Sparkfun MPR121 controller. After the MusicInk has dried, you can play it like notes. … [Read more...] about MusicInk allows you to play a piece of paper
