At the heart of the Experiential Robotics Platform (XRP) lies the powerful yet easy-to-use XRP Controller Board. This board is the brains of the XRP, packed with features that empower you to bring your robotic creations to life.
Connect your robot to the world wirelessly with the built-in Raspberry Pi Pico W, enabling seamless WiFi and Bluetooth® connectivity for remote control and data exchange. Navigate complex maneuvers with precision thanks to the onboard 6-axis motion sensor, which tracks your robot's every move and orientation. Control up to four motors independently with the integrated dual-channel drivers, perfect for powering wheels, tracks, or even robotic arms. You can even attach up to two servo motors to add a gripper or manipulator for precise and controlled movements.
There are endless customisation possibilities with the Qwiic connector. This simple interface makes adding sensors and accessories a breeze, allowing you to tailor your robot's capabilities to your needs.
The XRP Controller Board caters to all skill levels. Choose from beginner-friendly Blockly or dive deeper with Python. Even FIRST® Robotics enthusiasts can utilise familiar tools to program their creations. With multiple programming options available, the possibilities are truly endless.
So, whether you're a seasoned robotics expert or just starting your journey, the XRP Controller Board empowers you to build, program, and control robots that can explore, interact, and even learn. Its powerful features, ease of use, and expandability make it the perfect platform to learn, teach, and unleash creativity.
