The Bluetooth Boe-Bot Robot Kit for Microsoft Robotics Studio (MSRS) is a Parallax Boe-Bot Robot and an A7 Engineering eb500-SER Bluetooth module. The eb500 module makes it possible for the Boe-Bot robot’s BASIC Stamp 2 microcontroller brain to communicate wirelessly with MSRS running on a nearby PC. The BASIC Stamp microcontroller runs a small PBASIC program that controls the Boe-Bot robot’s servos and optionally monitors sensors while it communicates wirelessly with MSRS.
Vex Robotics Design System is a robotic kit intended to introduce students as well as adults to the world of robotics. The Vex Robotics Design System is centered around the Vex Starter Kit (which retails for about USD $500). This kit comes with the Vex “brain” (a microcontroller), a hobby-grade remote control, various sensors (2 [...]
If Mio Pup is making eyes at you, it’s because that’s how he communicates. This robotic Rover can walk, talk, play music, and more. And he lets you know exactly what he wants with his more than 100 “eye-cons”–images that light up in his eyes to express moods like happiness, hunger, love, and surprise. Standing [...]

Sure, Mindstorms NXT is a toy, but it is an important toy, like a piano or a chemistry set. It’s one of those items that engages an imagination and possibly opens doors to new interests. Since our future is surely to be shared with robots–it’s already started happening, just look at Roomba–those robots will need, [...]

This kit version of the Robonova I allows you to enjoy building your new [...]
Wowwee’s Roboreptile is an often startling robotic toy that, once you get the hang of its wonky controls, is actually pretty fun. Like other Wowwee robots, there’s a preprogrammed animation that goes off when it is first powered up. It’s impressive: growling, snapping jaws and a whipping tail. In short, Roboreptile looks like something out [...]

If you want to engineer a satellite tracking system someday, you have to start somewhere. How about learning circuitry with a Line-Tracking Mouse? This 6″ x 4-1/2″ robot has a transparent mouse-shaped plastic case over its electronics, making him almost 3″ tall. He has (3) photo interrupters that project infrared rays and distinguish between black [...]
