【Science kit】Color Sensing Coding Chameleon-Codee
Meet Codee—the amazing color-changing chameleon that sticks out its tongue and masters the art of camouflage. And guess what? Your kids can bring all that magic to life!
Codee’s belly has a built-in color sensor that lets it detect and change colors in real time. With three exciting play modes, there are endless ways to interact with Codee! In Pet Mode, gently stroke its chin and watch it wiggle and react like a real pet. Switch to Obstacle Avoidance Mode, and Codee will sense nearby objects and playfully stick out its tongue to “attack” them!
But the most impressive feature? Coding Mode! Codee can learn simple programming using color-coded cards—each card is a command. Kids can design their own missions and unleash their creativity, turning every play session into a fun, hands-on learning adventure.
Endless fun, creativity, and learning—all packed into one smart little chameleon!

I would like to make a query
-
What if the chameleon won’t power on, and there is no lights after long-pressing the button?
1.Check if the battery's positive and negative ends are installed correctly.
2.Check page 6, steps 5-6, to ensure the PCB wiring is properly connected.
-
What if the motor doesn't work after powering on?
Check page 6, steps 5-6, to ensure the PCB wiring is properly connected.
-
What if the tongue doesn’t eject properly?
1. Switch to Mode 1, and follow the tongue function test on page 33.
2. If the tongue is still not ejected, please power off the robot and follow the instruction below.
a. Check the Head Assembly on pages 27-29, steps 6,9,10, and ensure the assembly is correct.
b. Check the Head Assembly on pages 27-29, ensure the front gear box is completely sealed without any gaps.
c. Restart and follow the tongue function test on page 33.
3. If the chameleon still doesn’t stick out its tongue after executing the solutions above, please follow the instruction below.
a. Check page 10, step 19, ensure the burrs were cut off.
b. Check page 9, step 14, avoid over-tightening screw to prevent deformation.
c. Check page 11, step 22, and page 14, step 33, then restart and follow the tongue function test on page 33.
-
What if the tongue does not retract properly?
1. Power off.
2. Adjust the cotton string, making sure it’s not tangled.
3. Check the Head Assembly on pages 27-29 to ensure correct assembly, then restart and follow the tongue function test on page 33.
-
What if the chameleon walks unevenly or makes clicking noises?
Check if the C-clip in the joint is properly installed. Please refer to pages 24-25.
Check if the thigh joint is assembled correctly.
Please refer to page 16, steps 38-39, and pages 22-23, steps 15-17.
-
What if the chameleon's front legs aren't moving?
Check page 8, step 10, and page 13, step 29~30, and page 20, step 7~8, to ensure the parts are properly connected.
-
What should I do if the chameleon sticks out its tongue and gets stuck when retracting it?
Please make sure the P21 sticker is firmly attached to prevent the cotton thread from getting stuck in the gap and causing trouble in reeling.

What is the GE-735 AI Coding Chameleon Codee, and what science concepts can it teach?
The GE-735 AI Coding Chameleon Codee is a science kit that combines assembly, sensor-based interaction, and basic coding. A color sensor on its belly detects colors and changes Codee's displayed color in real time, while infrared sensing enables interactive responses. Assembly introduces gear mechanisms, and Coding Mode uses color cards as commands, allowing parents or teachers to combine mechanics, sensing, and programming concepts in one learning activity. -
What age is the GE-735 suitable for, and what should parents or teachers consider when planning a STEAM activity?
The GE-735 is recommended for ages 10 and up. Assembly takes about 2.5 hours and has a four-star difficulty rating, making it more suitable for learners who have the patience for an intermediate DIY build. It can be used for parent-child projects, classroom STEAM activities, mechanical structure lessons, or basic coding. For first-time builders, an adult should help verify the wiring, gears, and leg components at each step. -
How does the GE-735 color-sensing feature work? Does it really change color to match what it detects?
A color sensor on the GE-735's belly reads a color and changes the unit's displayed color in real time, making the link between sensor input and machine response easy to observe. The feature turns an abstract sensing concept into a visible interaction and can also be used with the color cards in Coding Mode. Each card represents a command, so users can arrange them in task order and practice linking commands, sensing, and actions into a complete sequence. -
What interactive modes does the GE-735 offer, and how do Pet Mode, Obstacle Avoidance Mode, and Coding Mode differ?
The GE-735 offers three interactive modes for exploring sensing and control in different ways. In Pet Mode, gently stroking Codee's chin makes it wiggle in response. Obstacle Avoidance Mode uses sensing to detect an obstacle and triggers a tongue movement. In Coding Mode, different color cards represent commands; users arrange a task sequence, and Codee carries it out in order. This mode is suitable for learning basic programming logic and command concepts. -
Does the GE-735 need to be plugged in, and how long and difficult is the assembly?
The GE-735 is battery-powered and does not connect directly to a wall outlet. It is recommended for ages 10 and up, takes about 2.5 hours to assemble, and has a four-star assembly difficulty rating. The product is designed and manufactured in Taiwan, and the product page lists Global, Taiwan, and China markets. Before use, check the packaging, product label, and included instructions for the battery and market requirements of the version purchased. -
What should parents check before assembling the GE-735?
The GE-735 is an intermediate science kit that requires assembly. It is recommended for ages 10 and up and takes about 2.5 hours to complete. Parents or teachers should prepare a clear work surface and allow enough time, paying particular attention to battery polarity, circuit board wiring, a properly closed gearbox, and the arrangement of the leg parts. Incorrect assembly in these areas may prevent startup, stop the motor, cause walking problems, or jam the tongue mechanism. -
What should I check if the GE-735 will not turn on and no lights appear after I press and hold the button?
If the GE-735 will not power on, first check whether the batteries are installed with the correct polarity. If the battery orientation is correct, inspect the circuit board wiring. The product FAQ refers to steps 5-6 on page 6 of the manual, with emphasis on confirming that the PCB wiring is connected correctly. Start by checking these two basic requirements—power and wiring—before deciding whether the assembly needs further inspection. -
Which assembly points should I check if the GE-735 motor does not run or the chameleon cannot walk properly?
If the GE-735 motor does not run, first check the circuit board wiring described in steps 5-6 on page 6 of the manual. If the unit cannot walk properly, also check whether the motor gear and part C12 have excessive burrs, whether they are correctly installed on the hexagonal gear shaft, and whether gear D11 fully meshes with gear P6. Checking the wiring and drive mechanism one item at a time makes it easier to locate the source of the walking problem. -
What should I do if the GE-735 tongue does not extend or gets stuck while retracting?
If the GE-735 tongue does not extend, switch to Mode 1 and perform the tongue function test on page 33 of the manual. If it still does not respond, turn the unit off, review the specified head-assembly steps on pages 27-29, and confirm that the front gearbox is fully closed with no gap. If the tongue extends but jams while retracting, check that sticker P21 is firmly attached so the cotton thread cannot enter the gap and interfere with retraction. -
What should I do if the GE-735 is unusually loud or its front legs will not move?
If the GE-735 sounds unusually loud during operation, first confirm that oil was applied to the locations marked for lubrication during motor assembly. If the front legs do not move, review step 10 on page 8, steps 29-30 on page 13, and steps 7-8 on page 20 of the manual, and confirm that the related parts are connected correctly. These issues have different causes: excessive noise relates to lubrication, while front-leg movement relates to assembly connections.
