Beyond being a mere toy, the Bittle X serves as a valuable learning tool, aiming to democratize the field of robotics. Despite its compact size, small enough to fit in your hand, it boasts remarkable articulation. Equipped with high-performance servos and multiple joints, it can mimic various dog-like movements such as walking, sitting, jumping, backflipping, kicking, and even scratching itself. Additionally, its bionic leg design enables natural movements like sitting down, getting up, recovering from a flipover, and navigating uneven terrain.
On one side, there’s advanced and potentially concerning AI technology. On the other side, there’s the Bittle X—an endearing robot dog toy. Unlike fearing technology, the Bittle X, a sibling to the 2020 Petoi Bittle, offers a chance to befriend, train, and explore technology. Resembling the Boston Dynamics robot dog, Bittle X is a palm-sized STEM toy suitable for kids, tinkerers, engineers, and those interested in coding, robotics, IoT, and AI experimentation. Fully open-source, it operates on a block-based programming environment, supports C++/Python programming, and boasts upgrades such as the ability to follow voice commands, record, and program your own voice commands—proving that even an old dog can learn new tricks!
