The CoDrone EDU is a programmable drone, meant for learning in the classroom. Code it in Python or start from the basics with block-based coding. Unique to this drone are its color sensors, a front range sensor, a bottom range sensor, among others—all usable in code. With a durable and safe frame, programmable lights, and access to its 7 sensors (, it’s an excellent learning tool and a great way to learn coding and engineering skills.

7 Sensors, Code Ready
There are plenty of advanced sensors packed into a small package. All of these sensors can be accessed from code and used to detect information about the environment.
Accelerometer
For sensing acceleration
Gyroscope
For sensing rotation
Barometer
For sensing height and pressure
Front range
For sensing obstacles ahead
Bottom range
For sensing distance to the ground
Color
For sensing surface colors
Optical flow
