Invest in Innovation with XRP

In many countries, such as the United Kingdom and Norway, governments are increasingly investing in fast-tracking their students to be prepared for future careers in robotics and AI. The program in the UK provided over 700,000 micro:bit computers to every Year 7 student, enabling them to begin their coding and STEM knowledge career path at a very early age. The XRP Robot, created by a consortium of organizations and companies, takes that model to an entirely new level. With a heavily discounted EDU version (available by working together with the consortium), states like New Hampshire and Minnesota are putting a robot in every classroom for less than the price of one textbook.

The XRP offers an unprecedented opportunity to learn the skills needed for the jobs of tomorrow. Based on a low-cost, scalable, and robust design, the XRP enables students in primary and secondary education to learn the fundamentals of robotics and artificial intelligence, both of which are essential for next-generation careers. Starting with simple block coding and advancing to motor control fundamentals, sensor fusion, and Python scripting, the XRP and its associated curriculum provide a solid foundation for middle and high school students. In addition, there is a proven model to leverage manufacturing, supply chain, and distribution engineering and business activities at the community college level, creating a complete and solid ecosystem for students throughout the entire EDU spectrum.

The platform is immensely scalable. Some examples include the University of Idaho, Cornell University, and 4-H, which created AgXRP, enabling classrooms to learn and implement smart agriculture solutions. AgXRP includes everything from soil sampling to automatic crop irrigation. XRP robots have been fitted with LiDAR for environment mapping and wireless charging devices for advanced power and battery management. XRPs have been to space on board a Virgin Galactic flight, and the list goes on and on.
