Once I have the RobotsLAB-BOX what will I need to do before teaching with it?

Open the box and get acquainted with your new robotic teaching assistants. The tablet and robots are charged and fully configured. We've assembled a Quick Start Guide with a sample lesson to get you going, and we suggest you look over the instructions, review the videos for a few lessons, and do a lesson runthrough or two before demonstrating in front of a class. If you’re more a ‘fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants’ kind of teacher, then that’s completely up to you, but it’s at your own risk and possible humiliation.

How easy is it to carry the box?

The RobotLAB-BOX fully loaded weighs 25lbs and can be carried by three easy to use handles, or you can extend the handle bar and roll the BOX like a piece of luggage. The heavy-duty plastic box is very durable and easy to transport, plus it’s black so it will match anything you’re wearing. Did we mention you look fantastic today?

When I connect my tablet to a projector, the image coming from my projector is a weird color. What's going on?

If your tablet's screen looks normal, but the image coming from the projector is the wrong color, the issue is probably in either the projector dongle or the projector.

NAO or Pepper Robot Does Not Respond When I Talk To It

robot-pepper-chatting

Both NAO and Pepper can be programmed to respond to a variety of stimuli, or programmed to engage in back and forth conversations. This is not a default behavior however, and your NAO or Pepper will not respond to any conversation until you teach it how to.

One easy way to do this is to install something called “Basic Channels” from the Aldebaran Cloud store. Basic Channels is a packaged set of dialog programs that makes the robot conversational right away.

If your NAO or Pepper used to respond to you and recently stopped, it is possible that the volume of the robot has been turned down so low that its answers are inaudible. It is also possible that a microphone is malfunctioning in the head. If you believe this to be the case, Contact Support.

Tour Creator Troubleshooting

Logo Tour creator-black background copyIf you are having trouble resetting your Tour Creator password, Contact Support.

There are two problems you might experience when creating tours in Tour Creator:

I created a project in Tour Creator but it isn’t showing up on the tablet.

"My Tours" has an unpublished project even though I selected “Publish” in Tour Creator.

Both of these problems stem from the Tour Creator login email address and the Expeditions 2.0 Activation Code.
