Details
Perfect for getting started with Edison and for ongoing use as a test mat for all your Edison creations and programs.
The EdMat includes six barcodes that activate the pre-installed programs including ‘follow a torch’, ‘line tracking’ and ‘sumo wrestle’. Instructions explaining how to scan the barcodes are included on the EdMat.
Using EdMats in the classroom also makes it easy to set up ‘robot testing stations’ for students to try out their programs.
Edison is a programmable robot (sold separately) designed to be a complete STEM teaching resource for coding and robotics education for students from 4 to 16 years of age. Edison empowers students to become not just coders, but inventors, problem solvers, and creative thinkers. More than a robot, Edison's sensors and expandable build system open up pathways for learning across math, science, critical thinking, engineering, design thinking, and more. There are no ongoing fees with Edison: all three robot programming software languages are free for unlimited users!
Designed specifically for the classroom environment, Edison robots are durable, have no loose parts to manage, and are simple to store.
Edison's robotic capabilities can be unlocked with ease through simple barcode programs. Students can then progress through three different programming languages as their skills increase.
- Ages 4+: Edison scans unique barcodes to activate pre-set programs in the robot – the perfect screen-free way for anyone to kick-start learning with Edison.
- Ages 7+: Intuitive and fun, EdBlocks is a fully graphical programming language that uses simple drag-and-drop blocks, making it ideal for introducing anyone to programming.
- Ages 10+: Easy drag-and-drop programming with powerful functionality and versatility, EdScratch is a robust platform for computer science education.
- Ages 13+: Text-based EdPy teaches students the core of a real-world programming language, empowering them to explore robotics and coding at a more advanced level.

What Educators are Saying About Geyer
Justin has been nothing but helpful and professional in my requests for these Boeing Defense requirements. He has been able to answer my questions and concerns quickly, and helped in securing the order that I may have made with another supplier had be not been the value-add that he is to your company. I hope his merit raise this FY was "exceeds expectations".
Jesse C...I contacted Geyer via email. I had an email back within minutes!.. A back and forth via email sometimes takes days with other companies and customer service doesn’t happen like this very often. When it does, it’s much appreciated. Brett at Geyer was very polite and accommodating!
John C.The customer service rep went as far as to reach out to the manufacturer of a product to answer my question, and then provided pictures. She really went above and beyond and answered the question thoroughly and gave me exactly the information I was looking for. This entire process was also extremely fast.
Robert C.I called to ask how to submit a Tax Exempt Certificate for my library and spoke to a real person, no automation or asking me to press a number. He was friendly, helpful and got our Tax Exempt status established immediately.
Mischelle F....I don't think I've ever experienced that level of customer service before, and taking it into consideration along with the quality of their products, I would absolutely recommend Geyer to fellow teachers.
