The prizes for Codeavour 5th Edition is broadly divided into four categories which are:
PictoBlox is an educational programming software with block-based coding and Python Programming that makes coding fun and easy. With a user-friendly interface and drag-and-drop functionality, it is the ideal companion for setting the first step into the world of programming. One can learn to code, make interactive animations and games, interesting projects based on IoT, program actions for robots, create Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning projects (like face expression detection, self-driving car, object identifier, or speech recognition), and much more!
PictoBlox software is available for Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chromebook users. PictoBlox App is also available on the Google play store for android users and Apple AppStore for iOS users (iPad or iPhones).
You can directly use PictoBlox as a web browser on https://pictoblox.ai/
(preferred browser is Google Chrome).
No, PictoBlox doesn’t store any pictures/videos of kids/users.
All the data generated or the camera/video feed used in PictoBlox is used locally or via our secured servers with a fully automated system without any human interventions. It is not used for any kind of marketing or promotional means without permission from the user (or guardians).
PictoBlox’ block programming environment is based on Scratch 3.0 and Google Blockly, hence the basic functionality is similar. PictoBlox has a slightly different user interface compared to Scratch. While Scratch is an amazing educational platform for kids to start their first coding project, PictoBlox offers a more streamlined and simplified interface, making it easier for young learners to navigate and use. PictoBlox runs block coding even on Android smartphones and iPhones. The blocks in PictoBlox are also larger and more visually appealing with a more interactive User Interface. There are many additional features PictoBlox offers, a wide range of extensions, including ones for integrating popular hardware platforms like Arduino, Lego and micro:bit. These extensions provide additional blocks and functionalities to interact with specific hardware devices. It also offers various extensions related to Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning, Music, Animation, looks, motion, sensing, operators, face detection, object detection, NLP, Chat GPT and more that you can find out here.
While both PictoBlox and Scratch are used in educational settings, PictoBlox places a stronger emphasis on AI, Machine Learning, Robotics and STEM education and integrating physical computing. It aims to teach programming concepts alongside electronics, AI, ML, and robotics, making it suitable for schools and maker spaces with a focus on hands-on learning.
If you have set your default coding environment, click on the Setting icon given in the upper right corner of the PictoBlox window, Select the Coding environment preference, and choose your default coding environment according to your use or set it to None if you want PictoBlox to ask the coding environment every time you start the app.
*Click on the image to open in full screen.
PictoBlox Software can run without an internet connection. but, there is a different extension that requires an internet connection.
You can perform AI, Ml, and Robotics based activities without an internet connection.
You can easily add various extensions in PictoBlox according to your need.However, it is dependent on your system RAM to load various extensions simultaneously.
You can add functions to the programming but not to the library.
Using My Block you can create your own Block that function can be used in upload mode as well.
While you open Pictoblox there is an option to choose from block/ python/ ml environment, one can select the environment from there
OR
go to file from the ribbon> select open Python Environment.
PictoBlox Python provides a wide range of built-in Python modules that you can utilize for various programming tasks. These modules cover many common functionalities and allow you to accomplish a lot within the PictoBlox environment.
However, if you encounter a scenario where you require additional libraries or modules that are not already included in PictoBlox, you can leverage the PIP Package Manager feature. The PIP Package Manager allows you to install third-party Python libraries from the Python Package Index (PyPI) directly within the PictoBlox Python IDE.
There are two ways to install a library using PIP Package Manager:
You can view the installation logs in the Python terminal.
Once installed, you have the option to update the library if an update is available or uninstall it.
Note: In PictoBlox Python in a web browser, you don’t need to explicitly install libraries. When you run your code, PictoBlox will automatically install any required libraries based on the “import module” statements present in your code.
For instance, if you include the statement “import numpy” PictoBlox will handle the installation of the “numpy” library directly.
*Click on the image to open in the full screen.
If your PictoBlox coding environment is set to default then PictoBlox will ask you every time you open the Pictoblox to choose the environment and you can select the ML environment.
If you are already in the coding environment and wish to open the ML environment, please go to File and you will see the last option Open ML Environment click on it and open your ML environment.
ML Environment is only available in the English language, for now, our team will be working on more languages.
If you want to contribute to translating PictoBlox in your language, kindly write to us at [email protected]
Yes, you can access the PictoBlox ML Environment Tutorial HERE. The tutorials are based on different classifiers available in the Machine Learning Environment. These tutorials also provide an introduction to working with Machine Learning (ML) models in PictoBlox with Block coding and Python Programming for Kids. With a step–by–step approach, users will learn how to create and use ML models in PictoBlox.
