Designed for Everyone
The GoPiGo is a complete kit to build your own robot car. GoPiGo works at the level you’re at — whether you are a parent looking for a smart, fun weekend project to do with your kid, a teacher looking for a way to increase engagement in your science course, or a grad student in need of a platform for your robotics research that requires mobility.
GoPiGo Robots have moved!
“The GoPiGo is a great tool for introducing robotics to a classroom.”

Durable
We built a robot that can survive classroom bumps and falls with thick acrylic, stronger metal and a better assembly experience. We added soft rubber wheels to give the robot precise movements and better traction on all surfaces.
More Sensors
Connect 5 Sensors (2 Analog/Digital, 2 I2C, 1 Serial), 2 Servos and a Camera! Program the two on-board LEDs in the front, as well as 2 multi-colored LEDs on the top!
Motor Control
Motors on the GoPiGo3 have built-in encoders, giving the robot precise and accurate motor control. This robot drives straight every time.
Power Management
The GoPiGo3 is redesigned from the ground up to increase battery life, protect the motors, and give a better experience powering the GoPiGo3.
DexterOS
Bloxter
Our drag-and-drop language for beginners to learn how to control the GoPiGo and dozens of its sensors!
Python
Enables more advanced students to use text-based coding to control the GoPiGo and dozens of sensors.
Lessons
Free, built-in lessons intuitively help students learn the basics of programming and robotics.
Nothing to Install
DexterOS broadcasts a wifi signal that connects directly to your device. Simply access the software through a web browser — nothing to download or install, making it a great fit for beginners & classrooms!
Built-in Lessons
Dozens of built-in lessons make it easy to get started learning how to program your GoPiGo. There are lessons for sensors as well, which teach the basics of programming and using sensors.
Bloxter
The built-in lessons are in Bloxter, our new drag-and-drop language similar to Scratch (and based on Blockly, a language by Google). Bloxter makes it fun and simple to learn how to program, while also offering advanced features for those that want to go beyond the basics!
NEW – Remotely program robots with bloxter.com! The new bloxter.com allows anyone to code a GoPiGo. Just create a program and send it to someone who can run it on a GoPiGo. It’s easy to experiment with bloxter.com, the newest way to learn at home.
Python
DexterOS also has a clean, simple Python programming area as well, using Jupyter Notebooks right out of the box. Sample programs are easily accessible, and a variety of libraries are already installed and ready to use!
NEW – Go even further with GoPiGo. Explore over 20 hours of free, intermediate Python activities for GoPiGo!

Fast to Update
DexterOS has a new way to update the software and firmware. Just download a zip file on a USB drive and plug it into your robot, boot it up and let it run — and you are all set! Easy classroom option available as well to update multiple robots in a row.
