Configurable - Programmable WiFi Mobile 4WD Robot Development Platform

Description

This is a configurable robot kit with selectable options at the bottom of the page. The options are pre-selected to reflect our recommended configuration but can be changed to suit your needs.

This Wi-Fi enabled Arduino robot can be controlled via wireless communication or used as an autonomous robot. Equipped with an Arduino Mega 2560 R3, it allows for quick and easy changes to the firmware and and plenty of I/O. The ASUS 3-In-1 Wireless Router by default is set up for point to point connection to be controlled directly from a PC or tablet. It can also be configured as a bridge allowing it to become an extension of your home or office network. This gives extended range and the option to control the robot from anywhere with an internet connection (if you configure port forwarding).

Applications

Fully Flexible Robotics platform - Specifically designed to provide the most flexible platform possible for research and development projects. The open chassis and platform allows for quick and easy component replacement and additions to suit your needs.
Remote Presence Development - Thanks to the on-board video server, the robot is perfect for research and development related to remote presence.
Autonomous Development - Thanks to the versatility of the Arduino platform, the robot is perfect for developing and testing your own autonomous robotics algorithms.
University Design Projects - The functionality of the platform makes it perfectly suited for design and testing of your own control systems, algorithms and sensor arrays.
