Boe-Bot Robot Kit
-- The ever-popular Boe-BotŪ Robot Full Kit, now available with a USB-compatible Board of Education (BOE).

The Robotics with the Boe-Bot text includes 41 new activities for the Boe-Bot Robot with structured PBASIC 2.5 source code support and bonus challenges with solutions in each chapter. Starting with basic movement and proceeding to sensor-based projects, the Boe-Bot is expandable for many different robotic projects. You quickly learn about embedded projects, from wiring and components to programming and mechanical dependencies. The kit includes a set of passive components (wires, resistors, capacitors), sensors (photoresistors, bumpers, infrared sensors) and hardware (whisker touch-sensor kit) to complete the different projects. No previous robotics, electronics or programming experience is necessary!

The Boe-Bot Robot takes about 1-2 hours to put together. Completing the entire set of projects takes 50 hours and is suitable for anybody over 12 years of age. The USB Board of Education (and BS2-IC) may also be removed to be used as your platform for the other kits in the Stamps in Class series.

After mastering the basics, use your skills on one of these projects:

  • Satellite antenna rotor controller
  • DTMF encoder/decoder
  • Digital Frequency Synthesis controller
  • Automated antenna tuner
  • Electronic weather station
  • GPS/APRS interface
  • Seismograph
  • TV Remote Decoder
  • Fox Hunting Rig Controller

    The Boe-Bot Robot is an integral part of ARRL's Teacher Institute on Wireless Technology
