C-programmable autonomous multi-sensor robot kit for education
Except for the printed circuit boards (PCB), only standard parts are used and freeware tools can be used for programming. The Asuro comes unassembled and includes a soldering guide making it suitable as introduction material for processor-controlled hobby electronics, for projects in schools, universities, and technical education.
The robot features an ATmega8L, 8-bit AVR-RISC processor and can be remotely controlled and PC-programmed via a USB transceiver (optionally, it can be controlled via Bluetooth or a 433MHz RF connection). Extensions kits include six collision-detector sensors, an optical line-tracker unit, two independently controlled 3V-DC motors, an on-board odometer sensor on both wheels, pre-programmed firmware for easy hardware testing and three LED indicators. Included in the package are a CD with software, training manual, and supporting materials as well as AVR-GCC freeware for use with Windows or Linux.
