ZOΕ (life)-BOT: The Greek robot that teaches students what robotics is

The journey to the classrooms begins

Meet ZOΕ (life)-BOT. It is the first Greek robot developed by the National Center for Research and Technological Development. It will bring primary school students in a first contact with robotics and programming.

The idea belongs to the Union of Parents of Primary and Secondary Education of the Municipality of Chalkidona in Thessaloniki. ZOE-BOT is a robot that will visit primary schools and on the occasion of a current issue - such as the COVID-19 pandemic - will interact with children and bring them into a first contact with robotics and programming. Thousands of students in Greece will have the opportunity to get to know her, ZOE-ROBOT, the robot that enters the classrooms, bringing them in a smart and interactive way in contact with robotics and programming.

More specifically, ZOE-ROBOT will inform in each of its visits about the measures that must be observed in order to remain safe in the time of the pandemic, while on the occasion of this information the children will come in contact for the first time with a robot. At the same time, they will have the opportunity to attend an introductory educational program on robotics, created exclusively for ZOE-ROBOT by the Science and Technology Center of the Eugenides Foundation.

It was built by the National Center for Research and Technological Development of CERTH / IPTI and is a donation of the Eugenides Foundation to the aforementioned Parents' Association.

Ms. Stella Valsamaki, president of the Association of Parents and Guardians of the Municipality of Chalkidona in Thessaloniki, spoke to public television ERT about the implementation and purpose of the idea of the robot.
