Pedro Robot Rev3 is a robotic arm that can be controlled through its buttons, Bluetooth, radio, or Wi-Fi.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead of using a traditional breadboard with wired elements, which may be daunting to beginner builders, Pedro Robot uses a breadboard that can be configured using plug-and-play components only. Pedro is an open-source venture where participants can modify and upgrade the design as they explore programming the robot.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a short video on the Kickstarter page showing the various aspects of Pedro Robot. As you scroll down, there is a story about how this venture began and what differentiates Pedro Robot and the pain point it is solving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-vivid-green-cyan-background-color has-background\">Kickstarter link: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/731479134\/pedro-0?ref=discovery_newest&amp;term=tools%20for%20learning&amp;total_hits=231&amp;category_id=338\">https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/731479134\/pedro-0?ref=discovery_newest&amp;term=tools%20for%20learning&amp;total_hits=231&amp;category_id=338<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Computer engineer and entrepreneur Almoutazar Saandi aims to make robotics and coding more accessible by lowering the barrier of entry to building your own robot.&#8230;<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/2025\/05\/31\/pedro-robot-rev3-build-with-no-screws-no-bolts-no-glue\/\">Read more<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Pedro Robot Rev3: Build With No Screws, No Bolts, No Glue<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":105122,"featured_media":7657,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[18],"tags":[67],"class_list":["post-7656","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pitch-pool","tag-pitch-pool","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7656","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/105122"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7656"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7656\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7658,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7656\/revisions\/7658"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7657"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7656"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7656"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec522\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7656"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
