Hands-on Scratch programming with a real quadruped robot. Students go from zero to controlling motion, reading sensors, and running AI vision - no prior experience needed.

Students programming a robot

Scratch Programming

Real block-based coding that drives a real robot - not a simulation. Students see their code come to life immediately.

Motion Control

Program MechDog to walk, turn, sit, and perform custom action sequences. Learn the fundamentals of robot locomotion.

Sensors & Detection

Use distance, touch, and color sensors to make the robot respond to its environment in real time.

Why Hume Robotics

Why Choose Hume Robotics in Cary

Most student programs use toy kits and drag-and-drop simulators. Hume Robotics uses a real programmable robot from day one.

Student with robot

Real robot hardware

MechDog - not a toy kit or screen simulation. Students interact with actual motors, sensors, and a camera.

Age-appropriate curriculum

Designed for grades 4-12 with Scratch - approachable for beginners yet challenging enough to keep advanced students engaged.

Instant feedback

Code runs on a physical robot in real time. Students see, hear, and feel the results of their programming immediately.

Small group mentoring

Intentionally small class sizes so every student gets attention, guidance, and hands-on time with the robot.
