Make your Arduino, the onboard brain of a mobile robot and learn robotics, electronics, and programming with this versatile kit and its accompanying step-by-step lessons.  The Board of Education Shield plugs into your own Arduino board (or purchase separately) and mounts on the robot chassis. 

With this kit and your own Arduino module, you can follow the Robotics with the Board of Education Shield for Arduino lessons with over 40 hands-on activities.

• Learning to program your robot's Arduino Brain
• Calibrating the robot's continuous rotation servo motors
• Using lights and speakers for status indicators
• Assembling the robot
• Preprogrammed navigation
• Using touch-switches to navigate by contact with objects
• Using phototransistors to navigate by light
• Using non-contact infrared sensors to measure distance and avoid or follow objects

Kit Contents:

• Board of Education Shield PCB
• High-quality aluminum robot chassis, continuous rotation servos, and wheels
• Boe-Boost Module (battery adaptor)
• All the electronic components and sensors needed for the Robotics activities
• All the assembly hardware needed (nuts, screws standoffs)
• Screwdriver

Note: Your own Arduino Uno, Mega, or Duemilanove Board and programming cable is required; not included.
