Now with Robotics text v2.0! The
new text includes 41 actitvities for the Boe-Bot and PBASIC 2.5 source
code support.
The Boe-Bot is built on a high-quality brushed aluminum chassis that
provides a sturdy platform for the continuous rotation servo motors and
Board of Education programming board. Mounting holes and slots may be
used to add custom robotic equipment. The rear wheel is a drilled
polyethylene ball held in place with a cotter pin. Wheels are machined
to fit precisely on the servo spline and held in place with a small
screw.
The Boe-Bot’s flexibility stems from the fact that it’s a rolling
Board of Education. All I/O projects are built on the breadboard. The
Board of Education (and BS2-IC) may be removed to be used as your
platform for the other Stamps in Class curriculum. The robot may be
programmed to follow a line, solve a maze, follow light, or communicate
with another robot by following the instruction of the Robotics text.
Extra activities which may require additional parts for your Boebot
include: making your Boe-Bot talk with a speech board, maze contests,
line following, interfacing direction sensors, and using RF modules and
video/camera equipment to build a Video-Bot.
