Makers, educators and those looking to learn more
about robotics or build their own robotic based project may be interested in
the iRobot Create 2 Programmable Robot, which has been specifically designed to
be coded. The programmable robotic platform comes complete with sample projects
to get you up and running as quickly as possible and is ready to use right out
of the box. No assembly is required and all low-level code is installed ready
to control.
Other features of the iRobot Create 2 Programmable
Robot include easy connectivity via the serial cable which sends commands from
a computer or other microcontroller directly to the robot, integrated sensors
also allow the robot to react to its environment.
The robot includes preprogrammed behaviours that can
be controlled via Open Interface Commands and a drill template on the faceplate
allows you to easily add extra components, modules and electronics revealing
the safe areas to drill and connect your structures and cases. Another handy feature
of the iRobot Create 2 system is that it will return to its Home Base station
to dock and recharge when the battery runs low, after approximately three hours
of use.
The iRobot Create 2 Programmable Robot platform is
also compatible with the Roomba 600 Series accessories including batteries,
Home Base, remote control and Virtual Wall.
