Main function introduction
Qbot is an educational robot based on graphical programming and
Arduino platform. This robot is perfect for learning STEM and robotic
knowledge. Perfect choice for robot lovers and beginners (Age is better
than 8 years old) to learn robotics, electronics and program.
Qbot has more than 10 sensor modules, highly integrated body makes
assembly very convenient,which helps you save time installing the
sensor module. Compared with many other robot products that need to be
built for a long time, the whole assembly process of Qbot only takes 2
minutes, so that you are no longer bothered by the tedious assembly. The
holes in the robot can be compatible with the LEGO bricks and you can
extend its function yourself, this means that Qbot will have infinite
possibilities.
In order to remote control Qbot more easily,we provide customers with
Android mobile APP. The mobile phone connects to Qbot via Bluetooth
4.0.
Qbot uses Drag and drop visual graphic programming software -
WeMake, which is a software developed based on Scratch 2.0. It allows
us to quickly learn programming and control robots.

Assembly
Assembly steps:
Step 1: We can fix 3 copper pillars onto control board.

8
Step 2:Then use wires to connect two board and put lithium battery onto
the motor board.
Step 3: Use screws to join two board together(control board and motor
board).

9
Step 4: Fix ultrasonic module to the right position. (There are two rows
of serial ports,you need to insert the ultrasonic sensor into the back row)
(You can also refer to the tutorial video)

Introduction of WeMake software
1.What’s WeMake Software
WeMake is a graphical programming tool developed based on scratch2.0,
we can use this software to control. Through WeMake programming we
can achieve the interaction between software and the physical world to
make QBot do corresponding response according to the changes in the
environment . WeMake's simple operability makes it possible for
everyone to build their own intelligent robots without having to learn
esoteric electronic knowledge.
2. How to install WeMake on your computer
You can download the installation file of WeMakeor contact the
salesperson for it.
Open installation file and select installation path.
Click “next”
select destination location
The installer will install WeMake into the following folder
Click next to continue, if you want to select other folder ,click”browse”
At least 426.3MB of free disk space is required

11
The installer is now ready to install WeMake into your computer
Click install to continue with this installer, if you want to review or
change the settings, please click “back”

12
Installing
The installer is installing WeMake into your computer, please wait.
The WeMake installation wizard finishes
The installer has installed WeMake into your computer,this application
can be run by selecting the installed shortcut
Cilick “finish” exit the installer

13
Only after QBot is connected to WeMake, we can use WeMake to
program QBot.
How to connect Qbot to WeMake
First, we need to connect Qbot to computer with mini USB cable, and
open WeMake software.
Install the driver
Uses the WeMake at the first time, you should install the driver.
select the corresponding path in Menu>Connect>Install Driver

14
Open the driver installation interface
Waiting for installation.

15
Next select the corresponding COM port in Menu>Boards>Qbot
Click COM6 to display Connected
Different computers may have different ports(don’t choose COM1), you
can open the DeviceManager, expand "Ports (COM & LPT) .

16
Install firmware
There are two ways for controlling the Qbot, one is use Infrared remote
control and the other way is use mobile phone App. Different functions
require different firmware to control. If you use the first way to control
the Qbot you can control it directly by the Infrared remote control,
because the default state of Qbot that the firmware we have installed. If
you use the second way you should install the firmware by yourself.
After connecting the Qbot, then find the firmware that of mobile phone
App control, and open it.
Select the corresponding port in Menu>Edit>Ardunio mode

17
Then click the “Upload to Ardunio”

18
When it appears Upload finish, you can start controlling your Qbot with
moile phone.

Infrared remote control
Hardware principle of infrared remote controller: Infrared light is a light
that our human eye can not see. We regard the infrared remote controller
as a flashlight that can emit infrared light, and the infrared receiver
module as an eye that can only see the infrared light.

pressed.
Create a Target：Qbot controlled by infrared remote controller
Realization: When we press button 2 on the remote controller. Qbot will
move forward and if we press button 8, it will move backward. Pressing
button 4 means turning left, button 6 means turning right.

Mobile phone APP to control the Qbot
First turn on the switch of the Qbot
Then open the Qbot APP that have been download on your mobile
phone.
After connecting the Bluetooth,you can start controlling your Qbot.
