The TI-RSLK has been developed to teach university students the engineering concepts behind designing, testing and building a functioning robotic system. The robot kit comes with a 20-module curriculum developed with Professor Jon Valvano from the University of Texas at Austin.
TI-RSLK Maze Edition includes over 60 electronic and mechanical components, including the SimpleLink MSP432P401R MCU LaunchPad Development Kit. The SimpleLink MCU platform delivers flexible hardware, software and tool options for IoT and robotics applications. The TI-RSLK teaches embedded systems and applications, but can also be fully customised, allowing tutors to tailor the TI-RSLK material to their own teaching needs.
There are three versions of the TI-RSLK Maze Edition kit:
The TI-RSLK Basic kit includes the SimpleLink MSP432P401R MCU LaunchPad Development Kit.
The TI-RSLK Advanced kit adds wireless communication concepts with the SimpleLink Bluetooth low energy CC2650 module BoosterPack plug-in module and SimpleLink Wi-Fi CC3120 wireless network processor BoosterPack plug-in module.
The TI-RSLK Upgrade kit can be added to the basic kit to create the advanced kit
