Hardware
- Uno The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328 (datasheet). It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started.
- Due The Arduino Due is a microcontroller board based on the Atmel SAM3X8E ARM Cortex-M3 CPU (datasheet). It is the first Arduino board based on a 32-bit ARM core microcontroller. It has 54 digital input/output pins (of which 12 can be used as PWM outputs), 12 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 84 MHz clock, an USB OTG capable connection, 2 DAC (digital to analog), 2 TWI, a power jack, an SPI header, a JTAG header, a reset button and an erase button.

Robot based on BOE shield for Arduino
My robot is based on 'Shield for Arduino' which means I can use Arduino IDE + C code style to write my code instead of using PBASIC programming which is used in another Robot product.
- Chapter 3. Activity 2: Re-test the servos. We can use Pins 11 and 12 instead of 12 and 13. Be sure to adjust your code accordingly.
- Chapter 4. Activity 2: First time we disconnect robot from the computer and let it go (forward, left turn, right turn and back ward).
- Chapter 5 (Whiskers). Activity 3 or 4: See my robot is in action on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjzQI6GHe3w.
- Chapter 7 (Infrared headlight). Activity 4: Similar to Chapter 5 but IR detectors are used. See the robot in action on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5pIZ5XcP7Y. Activity 7: Drop-off detection (Very Cool).
