An educational toy (1) includes a self-moving vehicle (10) adapted to move and steer freely on a two-dimensional surface (2) such as a table leaf. A tangible, three-dimensional marker (20) includes at least one RFID tag (21) is used to wirelessly trigger a specific action of the vehicle (10), e.g. turn 90 degrees right, when the vehicle (10) enters a readout range of the marker (20). The marker (20) can be placed freely on the surface (2) and cannot be overrun by the vehicle (10). Thus, the vehicle (10) is instructed to perform a certain action, e.g. take a 90 degrees left turn, using the marker (20). Then, the vehicle (10) moves forward until a next marker (20′) is found from which the vehicle (10) receives its next instruction. This enables the educational toy (1) to teach programming during play, which reduces the risk that a user will lose interest.

The present disclosure relates to an information transmitter having an electronics circuit, said electronics circuit has a transmitter; an antenna operably connected to said transmitter. Memory storage elements are also included having unique identification data with at least one activation element capable of activating said electronics circuit to transmit said unique identification data to external receivers. The present disclosure also relates to a medicament delivery device utilizing the information transmitter.

The present invention relates to an information provider system having a sheet material comprises printed visual information of a product and at least one NFC-tag arranged to said material, wherein said at least one NFC-tag is arranged with a chip containing specific information related to said product and an antenna. At least one switch operably connectable to said NFC-tag is also included such that when said switch is connected to said NFC-tag, an NFC-enabled smart device arranged adjacent said NFC-tag is activated, whereby said smart device provides further information to a user regarding the specific information of the NFC-tag.

A programmable robot includes a body, a pair of drive wheels rotatably coupled to the body, a pair of electric motors in the body for driving the drive wheels, a receiver unit configured to receive at least one wireless command from a programming device, a sensor configured to sense a surrounding environment of the programmable robot, and a controller operably connected to the receiver unit and the sensor, the controller configured to control operation of the electric motors in response to the at least one wireless command received from the receiver unit and a data signal received from the sensor.

The present invention provides system and method for creating a User Program using multiple physical manipulatives, one or more user interfaces, and an interactive board that can read the unique ID of the physical manipulatives placed upon it. A programming user creates the User Program by defining programming elements such as Objects, Properties, Methods, and Events, and by creating a programming structure utilizing those programming elements, all implemented with physical manipulatives.

Systems and methods for virtualized tangible programming are described. In an example implementation, a method includes detecting an object in image data, performing a comparison between the object and a predefined set of object definitions, recognizing the object as a visually quantified object or a visually unquantified object based on the comparison, processing a command region and a quantifier region for the visually quantified object and identifying a corresponding command, and executing a set of commands for the object.

A smart block control method, system, and computer program product, include capturing an intent of using one or more smart blocks and a domain of the smart blocks, determining an order of each of the smart blocks relative to each other, calculating an accuracy of a determined order of the smart blocks compared with the intent, and outputting an instruction via the one or more the smart blocks, in response to said calculating the accuracy of the determined order of the smart blocks compared with the predetermined order of the smart blocks.

A device for presentation and training in project work or group work includes a housing with cages configured in the interior to be adjacent to a surface segment at least in each corner and/or in the edges and/or in grids. A permanent magnet is arranged in each of the cages so that all magnets can orient themselves. The housing includes an electronic unit having a data memory on which at least one ID number is stored, a switch, and a transmitter connected to the switch and having an antenna. The transmitter wirelessly transmits the ID number to a controller and trigger a further process, which assigns the device a meaning within the scope of the project or group work. A related set comprises at least two devices, and can be used for presentation, training, project work or group work. A related method for digitalizing manually compiled specifications uses the set.
