Marty the Robot is a complete STEM solution built around a small walking robot with a big personality. Developed by roboticist Dr Sandy Enoch, Marty inspires young minds that STEM can be fun, imaginative and that anyone can do it. Marty’s human-like form, expressive face and incredible moves makes them an instant hit with young learners.
Offering unparalleled breadth of learning progression, Marty ‘speaks’ multiple programming languages, from screen- free and block-based coding right through to real-life language Python, has translation capabilities in over 40 languages, can be integrated with Raspberry Pi and micro:bit and is the only physical coding product at elementary level with AI functionality.
The Learning Portal houses over 250 curriculum-linked teaching materials – including NGSS, Common Core, ISTE and CSTA – so that educators can plan and deliver lessons that meet success criteria through the K-12 curriculum and beyond. As each stage is set out as part of a scaffolded and progressive learning pathway, teachers are able to concentrate on facilitating learning experiences while students advance at their own pace.
Marty can be bought directly from Robotical or via partner resellers. We offer two-week, no-obligation school trials and, in addition to individual robots, have three classroom bundles (5, 10 or 15 robot packs) to make Marty an even more attractive school-wide proposition.
To date, Marty has embarked on over 400 free trials in the USA (over 800 worldwide). Educators have benefited from 1,000+ hours of professional development in coding and robotics, which has positively impacted nearly 100,000 US students. For these reasons and more, Marty the Robot is the Cool Tool Award Winner for “Best Robotics (for learning, education) Solution” as part of The EdTech Awards 2025 from EdTech Digest. Learn more.
