Arduino Alvik


Code It. Drive It. Expand It.
Three Programming Paths
Students start with block-based coding and progress to Arduino C or MicroPython as their skills grow, creating a natural learning progression from beginner to advanced.
Advanced Sensor Suite
Time-of-flight, RGB color, and line-following array sensors plus a six-axis gyroscope and accelerometer let students tackle innovative, real-world robotics projects.
Expandable Design
LEGO Technic and M3 screw connectors plus compatibility with 3-D printing and laser cutting let students customize and extend their robot for any challenge.
Rechargeable and Ready to Go
A rechargeable, easy-to-replace battery ensures continuous learning sessions so students spend their time coding, not waiting.
What Students Can Do
- Program obstacle avoidance using time-of-flight sensors
- Build a line-following robot with the sensor array
- Code a smart warehouse automation robot
- Control precise movements with the gyroscope and accelerometer
- Design custom attachments using LEGO Technic or 3-D printed parts
- Debug and refine code across three programming languages

Why Teachers Love the Arduino® Alvik
Hands-On Robotics Learning
Students program a real robot, not a simulation—building coding confidence through physical, tangible results they can see and share.
Three Programming Paths
Block-based, Arduino C, and MicroPython options let teachers differentiate instruction and meet every student where they are.
Standards-Aligned Curriculum
Eleven lessons align to NGSS and CSTA standards, giving educators ready-to-use content that satisfies documentation requirements.
Career-Connected Skills
Students build the same robotics, automation, and programming skills used in warehouse logistics, manufacturing, and autonomous vehicle industries.
Expandable and Future-Proof
LEGO Technic connectors, M3 screws, and 3-D printing compatibility mean Alvik grows with your program year after year.
Fifty-Plus Years of Pitsco Support
Backed by Pitsco Education's decades of experience equipping hands-on STEM classrooms.
