====== Robotic HomeLab II generation ====== The modules of the Robotic HomeLab are divided into different kits, allowing one to select the best option for the needs of a student or school. The simplest set is the Robotic HomeLab Basic kit including the components to carry out the basic microcontroller experiment. In addition to the microcontroller, the kit consists of a User Interface module with LCD display. Together with the Robotic HomeLab Basic kit, the Robotic HomeLab Add-On kit can be used; this includes different types of motors and sensors together with accessories and Communication module. The Robotic HomeLab Add-On kit cannot be used separately from the Robotic HomeLab Basic kit as the microcontroller is not included in the Add-On kit. In addition the RFID and Machine Vision modules are available. The Robotic HomeLab Basic kit together with the Robotic HomeLab Add-On kit are convenient to use and carry to home for the robotic experiments. ===== Robotic HomeLab Basic kit ===== [{{ :kit:basic_kit_v5.png?400 |Robotic HomeLab Basic kit}}] \\ \\ \\ \\ * AVR ATmega2561 development board, including Ethernet, SD card reader and integrated JTAG programmer * User interface board (buttons, LEDs, Graphical LCD, 7-segment indicator and buzzer) * USB cable * Example exercises with C-source code (examples) * Software library * Power supply * Multimeter * Software for programming in Assembler and C language * Portable case ===== Robotic HomeLab Add-On kit ===== [{{:kit:sensor_motor_kit.jpg?330|Robotic HomeLab Add-On kit}}] ==== Sensor Module ==== * Analogous sensor and low-pass filter combined board with on-board sensors (temperature sensor, light intensity sensor, potentiometer and mic) * Ultrasonic distance sensor SRF05 with cable * Infrared distance sensor with cable ==== Motor Module ==== * DC motor (w/ gear and encoder) * RC servo motor * Stepper motor (bipolar or unipolar stepper) * Motor driver board * Power supply divider ==== Communication module ==== * Communication board, 2xRS232 * ZigBee or Bluetooth wireless unit {{:kit:homelabv5.1.jpg?400|}} ===== Robotic HomeLab additional modules ===== Additional modules are not packed into the cases but can be directly connected with Robotic HomeLab Communication module.
