Turtle Robot T Logo

A project to build something similar in ethos to the original Logo Turtle Robot. it will aim to use existing hardware and software stacks to stop us reinventing the wheel and make use of existing communities that support that hardware/software

Nanode - AVR parts only Blutooth modeule - enables wireless (serial) communication. Arduino/Bitlash software environments

Two wheels and two motors built on a bit of wood for a platform with everything on it.

The aim is to be able to supply a kit for 25-35 GBP that kids/parents can buy to teach themselves something, and have a bit of fun. and then, to enable them to carry on with that by letting them loose with the nanode 'stack of goodies' - arduino community, more hardware/electronics. off the shelf stuff.

todo: add interface design pics and rational for 'page flow' in the app
