A hands-on coding learning kit
Build a track. Place a color snap. Run the train, observe what happens, then change it. Smart Train turns a learner's idea into the movement of a real train—and makes “think, test, check” visible.
Used in Japan
One train, multiple ways to think
Follow the product-specific sequence using real product photography and an actual Scratch screen.
1 / Place a color
Start, stop, change speed or reverse direction. The first experiments can begin physically, without a screen.
See the three learning routesThe Smart Train experience
Change the track. Move a color snap. Change one line of code. Instead of watching an answer, learners can test their own thinking with a physical result.
Decide where the train should stop, turn or change speed.
Place color snaps, connect Scratch blocks or write Python.
If the result is different from the prediction, change it and run again.
Choose the right route
Organizations need operational boundaries and purchasing details. Families need clear age guidance, a first-day path and an honest view of the price.
For learning centers, coding schools, schools, clubs, companies and venues that can plan and operate their own use of the product.
From age five, with adult support appropriate to the child's experience. Build, discuss, run and adjust together.
Three ways to learn
The same train can be controlled without a screen, with visual blocks or with code. The routes can be used independently or combined.
Place colors on the track to shape the movement
Place colored pieces on the track. The train reads them and changes speed, stops or responds in other ways. Move a piece, run the train again and see the result immediately.
Build on screen, then test it with a real train
Control speed, stopping, routing and lights with blocks. What students build on screen becomes the movement of a physical train.
Move from sample code to precise control
Work with sensors, travel distance and multiple trains from code. The same vehicle can support deeper experiments such as automation and collision avoidance.
