Springbot Green

Springbot: Locally Built for a Connected Future

The Springbot Green is supplied to schools and facilitators implementing coding and STEM programmes. It is not for sale as single unites.

The Springbot is South Africa’s homegrown coding and electronics platform, designed to inspire young minds through hands-on learning. Built for schools and communities, Springbot empowers students to explore coding, electronics, and data-driven problem-solving—equipping them with critical skills for the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Developed and manufactured in South Africa, the Springbot offers an affordable, robust alternative to imported devices like the micro:bit. It is purpose-built for the South African curriculum and learning environment, ensuring it meets the needs of both learners and educators.

What is Springbot?

Springbot is a compact, powerful learning device featuring:

• Locally assembled hardware using a popular microcontroller.
  
• A range of onboard and plug-in sensors, enabling students to measure and analyse the world around them.
• A simplified coding environment using block-based and text-based coding, helping beginners and advanced learners alike.
