Arduino® Alvik

3 Device Operation

3.1 Getting Started - MicroPython

Alvik can be programmed with MicroPython. To do that download and install the Arduino Lab for MicroPython [1].
To connect the Alvik robot to your computer, you will need a USB-C® cable.

3.2 Getting Started - Arduino IDE

If you want to program your Alvik robot while offline you need to install the Arduino® Desktop IDE [2]. To connect
the Alvik robot to your computer, you will need a USB-C® cable.

3.3 Getting Started - Arduino Cloud

All Arduino® IoT-enabled products are supported on Arduino Cloud [3] which allows you to log, graph and analyze
sensor data, trigger events, and automate your home or business.

3.4 Sample Sketches

Sample sketches for the Alvik robot can be found in the "Alvik robot Documentation" section of Arduino® Docs [4]
and inside its dedicated libraries.

3.5 Online Resources

Now that you have gone through the basics of what you can do with the device, you can explore the endless
possibilities it provides by checking exciting projects on Arduino Project Hub [5] and the online store [6] where you
will be able to complement your Alvik robot product with additional extensions, sensors and actuators.
