One of our customer lyweilian has built a iPhone controlled robot using A4WD-Pirate mobile robots. Cooked with ethernet shield and a router, it now can be controlled via iPhone. Theoretically, it can be controlled by any wifi enabled device such a iPad, Android,Android Tablet. Excellent work, Lyweilian.

This video was done by Dan. He spent two months on DFRobot to build this very High-tech robot spider. This spider becomes a super start in all DFRobot attended exhibition and events. Take a look and enjoy.

This project reads feed data on Pachube and shows the data on an LCD. The project is quite simple. The following hardware was used:
-DFRobot X-Board v2 (DFR0162)
-DFRobot FTDI Basic Breakout (DFR0065) for uploading the sketch code to X-Board
-LCD2004 display
- DFRobot USB Power adapter (FIT0107)
-USB cable for power
-Ethernet cable to connect it to router/internet
To connect the LCD to the X-board please take a look at the LCD Wiki: here
So we have the hardware, now it is time for software. To compile your code you need:
- Arduino IDE, the latest version is V1.0
- Pachube library ERxPachube available: here (note: please download and install library version compatible with your IDE, i.e. for IDE 1 is the latest version ERxPachube-I-3.1.zip)
- LCD library can be downloaded: here Read the rest of this entry →

We got the Ultimaker the first week of March, and today March 28, 2012, we finally got it built, adjusted, and calibrated! after what seems like hundreds of hours tweaking, reading, and learning what makes the ultimaker tic! So here we will describe some of the key parts you should calibrate on your ultimaker, and give you a few tips we wish someone had given us. Read the rest of this entry →

MobileWill's Sbot2
Will has posted a few pictures detailing his excellent build of a security bot using many DFRobot parts, as well as parts from Sparkfun and Adafruits. We are always glad to see our customer’s final projects. Good job Will!
An interesting feature for this robot is the Docking/Charging station Will created for it. If you want to build one for yourself check out Will’s blog for details about the hardware he used.
