Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP) Chassis with Plastic Parts - Beta

With this XRP Beta Chassis you can unleash your robotic creativity and 3D-printed foundation used in the popular XRP Kit.


Description

The Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP) is a hands-on, comprehensive robotics platform and includes everything needed to build and program a robot to perform beginning through advanced tasks - building the foundation for innovative thinking, science, engineering, and problem solving. The platform provides:

  • Progression from fundamental robotics to driving, line following, using sensors, using a robotic arm, and culminates in building an autonomous delivery robot
  • Coding environment includes Blockly tools/libraries, Python, and the FIRST ® Robotics coding development tool, WPILib
  • Easy-to-assemble hardware kit that can be assembled completely tool free (no soldering, no screws)
  • Online activities and modules that build on one another
  • Content designed for middle and high-school students and beginners
  • Jumping off point for customising the robot in countless ways

With this XRP Beta Chassis you can unleash your robotic creativity and 3D-printed foundation used in the popular XRP Kit. This standalone kit is a great option if you don't have the ability to 3D-print your own chassis, as it provides a sturdy and versatile platform to build your bot! Best of all, since this is the Beta version, it offers the same functionality of the full release XRP version at a fraction of the cost.

The kit's core is a single-piece frame with all other parts conveniently attached. Dedicated clips for sensors ensure an easy starting point for users, while a lifter mechanism with a hook and clip assembly opens doors for diverse manipulation tasks for advanced robots. A secure snap-on battery cover also keeps your power source secure and safe, and two wheels provide smooth movement.

This durable and easy-to-assemble chassis empowers robot builders of all skill levels. Whether you're a seasoned roboticist or just starting out, this kit provides the perfect foundation for any robotics project.

This kit and the online tools are in beta form – by using the kits now, you will not only be an early adopter, but you will be able to provide feedback to make the platform better.
