ActivePuzzle is a robot-building game where blocks are puzzle pieces

Tel Aviv, Israel -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/27/2019 -- The ActivePuzzle game is getting into its last 24 hours crowdfunding on Kickstarter. The Tel Aviv based startup which develops innovative edutainment products raised on Kickstarter over 330% of its goal.

ActivePuzzle announced earlier this week a new adapter for interfacing the LegoTM bricks. The new adapter can be connected to both puzzles and LegoTM bricks.

As part of its ongoing Kickstarter campaign, ActivePuzzle announced a goal stretching, declaring that upon reaching $75,000 it will provide two such adapters with each set. According to the ActivePuzzle creators, the new adapter is expected to be very useful for users in combining puzzle robots with the so common LegoTM bricks.

The ActivePuzzle game is based on expressing technology ideas using puzzles, which makes ActivePuzzle the simplest robot building game. The game doesn't rely on coding or computer screens — simply snapping puzzle pieces together forms robots, hence making ActivePuzzle a great platform for invention and innovation.

Benefits of ActivePuzzle:

- Improves STEM skills (science, technology, engineering and math) while playing
- Develops computational thinking, along with logic and problem-solving skills
- Develops spatial cognition capabilities
- Encourages creativity and innovation
- A really fun game to all family!

ActivePuzzle takes puzzles into the next level of sophistication

Mishmar Ayalon, IsraeL -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/20/2019 -- ActivePuzzle, an innovative technology company that develops imaginative and educational products, developed a revolutionary, interactive and sophisticated puzzle game. The game is currently crowdfunded on Kickstarter and is marked as a staff pick. The ActivePuzzle game teaches STEM concepts, logic and problem-solving skills using puzzles-shaped robot blocks.

A traditional puzzle is a two dimensional picture produced when completing the assembly of its interlocking pieces. The ActivePuzzle takes the game several steps ahead: it is composed of three dimensional building blocks, each implementing a certain electronic or robotics function: The battery block supplies electric power, the proximity sensor "sees" objects, the motor can drive wheels, etc.

Expressing technology ideas using puzzles makes ActivePuzzle the world's simplest robot building game. The game doesn't rely on coding or computer screens — simply snapping puzzle pieces together forms robots, making ActivePuzzle a great platform for invention and innovation.

The ActivePuzzle game contains puzzle blocks with each block implementing a certain function: The battery block supplies electric power, the proximity sensor "sees" objects, the motor can drive wheels, etc.

ActivePuzzle comes in the following sets
- ActivePuzzle Invent ($145 US retail) - 16 blocks

- ActivePuzzle Advanced ($175 US retail) - 22 blocks

- ActivePuzzle School Lab ($1,220 US retail) - Includes 10 ActivePuzzle Advanced Kits and a digital curriculum pack for educators.

Kickstarter selected ActivePuzzle, a game for building robots out of puzzles, to be a Project We Love.

Tel Aviv, Israel -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/08/2019 -- Today, Kickstarter announced ActivePuzzle, a game for building robots out of puzzles, to be a Project We Love. Kickstarter approve only limited number of projects as Project We Love, and ActivePuzzle was selected due to its innovative method for learning robotics.

ActivePuzzle is a game for building robots out of puzzles. No coding, No screens. Simply snap puzzle blocks to each other to form robots. Its simplicity and intuitiveness make ActivePuzzle a great platform for invention and innovation.

The ActivePuzzle game contains puzzle blocks with each block implementing a certain function: The battery block supplies electric power, the proximity sensor "sees" objects, the motor can drive wheels, etc.

Rather than teaching kids the robotics language, ActivePuzzle lets them learn robotics in their own language. And the very first language they learn even before they start talking is... Puzzles!

ActivePuzzle is a robot-building game where blocks are puzzle pieces

Tel Aviv, Israel -- (ReleaseWire) -- 03/04/2019 -- ActivePuzzle, an innovative technology company that develops imaginative and educational products was funded on Kickstarter in just 48 hours. ActivePuzzle teaches STEM concepts, logic and problem-solving skills using puzzles-shaped robot blocks.

"Technology should be taught in a language children understand," said Meir Sela, the founder of ActivePuzzle. "I got together with a team of creative people who shared the same vision; we wanted to teach children technology using their own language, one that they learn before they even start talking... Puzzles!"

Expressing technology ideas using puzzles makes ActivePuzzle the world's simplest robot building game. The game doesn't rely on coding or computer screens — simply snapping puzzle pieces together forms robots, making ActivePuzzle a great platform for invention and innovation.

ActivePuzzle comes in the following sets:

- ActivePuzzle Invent ($145 US retail)

16 puzzle pieces included: LED, motor, buzzer, voltmeter, IR transmitter, light sensor, temperature sensor, proximity sensor, potentiometer, IR receiver, logic-not, logic-and, logic-or, insulator, wave and battery. Also included are one USB cable, one wheel and one propeller.

- ActivePuzzle Advanced ($175 US retail)

22 puzzle pieces included: LED, motor x2, buzzer, voltmeter, IR transmitter, light sensor, temperature sensor, proximity sensor x2, potentiometer, IR receiver, logic-not, logic-and, logic-or, insulator, wave, arduino, conductor, A2D and battery x2. Also included are one USB cable, two wheels and two propellers.

- ActivePuzzle School Lab ($1,220 US retail)

Included are 10 ActivePuzzle Advanced Kits and a digital curriculum pack for educators.

Each puzzle piece implements a certain function: the battery piece supplies electric power to the circuit, the proximity sensor "sees" objects, the motor drives a wheel or fan, etc. ActivePuzzle robots are based on the Braitenberg Vehicle principle: input pieces trigger adjacent output pieces. For instance, when a light sensor puzzle is connected to a motor puzzle, the motor will run faster as the light on the sensor gets more intense.

ActivePuzzle is for children aged 8+ and for those with young minds who want to build robots and to learn how they work. Additionally, educators can use ActivePuzzle to teach STEM: the game is very intuitive and simple to learn, and there are a large number of scientific and technological concepts that can be taught using ActivePuzzle. One important characteristic of ActivePuzzle is its being a gender-neutral game: the puzzle language makes girls feel natural and confident, and the game activities strengthen their self-efficacy.

Benefits of ActivePuzzle:

- Improves STEM skills (science, technology, engineering and math) while playing
- Develops computational thinking, along with logic and problem-solving skills
- Develops spatial cognition capabilities
- Encourages creativity and innovation
- A really fun game to all family!
