Arlektra

Doesn’t work as advertised. The AR feature is really bad. 90% of the time it doesn’t work and just bounces around. They should have videos and reading tutorials along with the AR, cause the AR doesn’t work.

I never knew what Augmented Reality was, so I was really skeptical when we purchased the Arlektra kit for our son. The 3D experience mixed together with the hands-on projects are really impactful, and helped my son understand different concepts of electricity as he followed the lessons and built circuits. Thank you so much for an awesome teaching tool and learning experience!

I love the concept, but the AR does not work very well, especially in relation to the breadboard. I think you need a non-AR mode that I can just move with my fingers on the screen so I can just reference the image as opposed to trying to overlay it on the breadboard. Too much fussing around. The lessons dont track your progress. I think you need to have some badges or progress tracker. I think you should have lessons build on other lessons to make the board layout more complex over time without starting fresh for each project. The jumper wires do not easily slide into the breadboard and so the tips end up bending. The kit should have come with hard tip jumper-wires. I would say 4 stars on the hardware and concept, and really 2 stars on the app for now, but I see a lot of room for improvement over time.
