\n Once the app is launched, log in using the username and password provided by the seller. In case you have not received your code, don’t hesitate to\n \n contact our team\n <\/a>\n .\n <\/p>\n \n After pressing \u00ab\u00a0Login\u00a0\u00bb, the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface of the application appears. Make sure that your phone’s bluetooth is enabled and that your\n \n Alpha Mini robot\n <\/a>\n is turned on, then press \u00ab\u00a0Start Binding\u00a0\u00bb to pair the robot to your phone.\n <\/p>\n \n You will have a choice on how to connect the robot to the Internet. Connection via mobile data (4G) is only possible if a SIM card is inserted in the robot. In this guide, we connect to the Alpha Mini educational robot via WiFi network.\n <\/p>\n \n Using Bluetooth, your phone will recognize your robot and display its serial number. Tap on this number.\n <\/p>\n \n Alpha Mini will then search for WiFi networks nearby (your home or your establishment for example). Once your WiFi network appears on the screen, tap on it and enter its password.\n <\/p>\n \n The robot will then connect to the WiFi. Press \u00ab\u00a0Done\u00a0\u00bb once the connection is established.\n <\/p>\n \n After pressing \u00ab\u00a0Done\u00a0\u00bb, the application returns to the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface. This time, the robot is connected.\n <\/p>\n \n The Alpha Mini robot can perform several pre-recorded actions.\n <\/p>\n \n To launch one of them, press \u00ab\u00a0Action\u00a0\u00bb in the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface.\n <\/p>\n \n You will have three action tabs, sorted by action type. These three tabs are \u00ab\u00a0Action\u00a0\u00bb, \u00ab\u00a0Dance\u00a0\u00bb and \u00ab\u00a0Funny\u00a0\u00bb.\n <\/p>\n \n Press the icon of the action of your choice for the Alpha Mini robot to perform it.\n <\/p>\n \n You can also talk to your Alpha Mini educational robot by saying \u00ab\u00a0Hey mini\u00a0\u00bb.\n <\/p>\n \n Several examples are available on the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface.\n <\/p>\n \n The two other available interfaces are the \u00ab\u00a0Skills\u00a0\u00bb interface and the \u00ab\u00a0Me\u00a0\u00bb interface. The \u00ab\u00a0Skills\u00a0\u00bb interface presents the different functionalities of the robot and the \u00ab\u00a0Me\u00a0\u00bb interface lists the parameters of the application.\n <\/p>\n \n It is also possible to program the Alpha Mini robot because the application has a block coding interface. To access it, press \u00ab\u00a0Workspace\u00a0\u00bb in the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface.\n <\/p>\n \n You will access the coding interface: the list of available programming blocks is on the left, the coding interface is in the center and the program start button at the bottom right, colored blue.\n <\/p>\n \n Your recorded programs can be found in the \u00ab\u00a0My Works\u00a0\u00bb section of the \u00ab\u00a0Playground\u00a0\u00bb interface.\n <\/p>\n \n In the \u00ab\u00a0Official Cases\u00a0\u00bb tab, you will find three tutorial programs that show the different possibilities of the coding interface.\n <\/p>\n \n If you wish to program your Alpha Mini robot from your computer, you can download the\n \n UCode software\n <\/a>\n . This software provides a block programming environment similar to Scratch.\n <\/p>\n \n Once the software is installed on your computer, launch it. To connect your Alpha Mini robot, click on the \u00ab\u00a0Connect Device\u00a0\u00bb icon in the top right corner. Then click on the \u00ab\u00a0Scan\u00a0\u00bb button.\n <\/p>\n \n Select the Alpha Mini robot, and enter the last four digits of the robot’s serial number, making sure it is not connected to another device’s Bluetooth.\n <\/p>\n \n Once the robot is recognized by the computer, you can use the blocks in the UCode software to program it.\n <\/p>\n \n <\/body>\n<\/html>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Presentation of the Alpha Mini mobile app The Alpha Mini educational robot works with a mobile app available on Android .
