So its that special time of the year for many families around the world. We decided to build a learning robot kit for Christmas, we think it makes for an ideal gift for anyone wanting to learn about robotics. This is a DIY remote control robot kit. This kit is ideal for anyone from beginner to expert. The kit includes an electronic assembly guide along with wiring diagrams and sample codes. For those of you who don’t like reading the manual, great! We encourage you to take these components and make your own version of the Christmas Rover. Since this robot kit is DIY and based on Open Source hardware, its easy to modify for your own projects; add or remove sensors depending on what you want to achieve with your new robot.

This robot kit comes with 3 infrared sensors, 1 ultrasonic sensor, 1 IR receiver and IR Control, 1 Bluetooth module, our wildly popular Romeo microcontroller (Arduino compatible); which is ideal for robotics since it comes with an integrated motor controller, and of course the above pictured 4WD robot platform, wheels and all!

Here is the link for the Christmas Rover. Continue reading »

Ghosty

Hi Everyone,

We have helped launch a kickstarter project. Please visit the project page, and if you like the project donate some money to make this project successful!

Ghosty is a non traditional Arduino project enclosure. While it does not offer protection from the elements, it does offer character. When was the last time your project box made you smile? Besides, who needs protection from the elements when you have character!?

The funds will be used to cover part of the cost for the plastic injection mold. If the goal is achieved it will take about 60 days to make the mold and have the first production run, and promptly dispatched to you.

This Arduino project enclosure was designed in collaboration with DFRobot.com

 

thanks kickstarter and all for your support!
