CardBot turns physical programming cards into real robot commands! Perfect for young learners and STEM enthusiasts, CardBot bridges the gap between tangible play and digital coding.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Scan physical programming cards using your phone's camera or NFC

2. Build a visual block program by arranging cards in sequence

3. See the real Python code generated automatically

4. Connect to your robot car via Bluetooth and run the program!

KEY FEATURES

📸 Card Scanning

Scan programming cards instantly using camera-based ArUco marker detection or NFC tags. The app recognizes 33 different programming cards across 4 categories.

🧩 Visual Block Programming

Drag and drop blocks to reorder your program. Each card becomes a colorful block that's easy to understand — no typing required!

🐍 Real Python Code

Every block program automatically generates real Python code. Watch the code update live as you add, remove, or reorder blocks. A built-in code editor lets advanced users edit directly.

🤖 Bluetooth Robot Control

Connect to your robot car via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Run your program and watch the robot execute each command in real time.
