What is LunaBot?

FirstBuild’s lead software engineer, Bobby, is back with a prototype designed to help kids learn to code. LunaBot is a programmable pet robot that can be controlled using a smartphone or iPad.

Bobby designed Luna so his 5-year old daughter could develop coding and robotics skills at a young age, but LunaBot is flexible enough to be engaging for any audience.


“I designed LunaBot to be for my daughter, who is about 5-years old, but really LunaBot is something that would be engaging for an adult or someone all the way down to my daughter’s age. It’s meant to be easy to use, but technically engaging for any audience.”

– Bobby, Senior Software Engineer
