Assemble Yah Boom micro:bit Robot KIT Step 1: Installing The Motors and Wheels

Couple weeks ago, I received a cool BBC micro:bit Yah Boom Robot KIT from Makerfabs donated for the Visuino development :-).

I already posted Unboxing Video for it, and promised Assembly videos.
Here is the first Assembly Video - Install The Motors and Wheels



I am preparing the rest of the Assembly videos and will post them in the following days. I have also started mapping the Robot's functionality in Visuino, and hope to have improved support in few days.
After that I will try to make some Visuino tutorials for the Robot.

Cheers,
  Boian

Assemble Elegoo Penguin-Bot Arduino Robot KIT Step 4: Install and Connect the Arduino Control Board

Couple of weeks ago, the great folks from Elegoo sent me a  Cool new Penguin-Bot Arduino Robot KIT .
The Robot is not yet for sale, and I have received one of the very first robot kits.

I already posted:

Unboxing Video
Step 1: Assemble The Feet, and Install the Servos controlling them
Step 2: Assemble The Legs
Step 3: Install The Legs

Here is the 4th Assembly Video - Install and Connect the Arduino Control Board




I am preparing the rest of the Assembly videos and will post them in the following days. I have also started mapping the Robot's functionality in Visuino, and hope to have improved support in few days.
After that I will try to make some Visuino tutorials for the Robot.

Received a cool BBC micro:bit Yah Boom Robot KIT from Makerfabs for the Visuino development, and posted Unboxing video :-)

Last week I received a cool BBC micro:bit Yah Boom Robot KIT from Makerfabs donated for the Visuino development :-).

Here is the unboxing video:

This is how the assembled robot looks like:






I hope you will enjoy the video :-).
I have already assembled the Robot and plan to start programming it with Visuino :-) . As part of the effort I already added initial BBC micro:bit support in Visuino, and it will be available in the next release :-)
I will be posting Assembly videos shortly, so stay tuned!

Cheers,

Received 2 Arduino Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Modules from XiaoR Geek for the Visuino development!

Few days ago, the great folks at XiaoR Geek sent me 2 Infrared Obstacle Avoidance Sensor Modules for the Visuino development :-)

Here are some pictures:



I will be traveling for the next couple of days, but when I am back, I will see to make some video tutorials for using the sensors with Arduino and Visuino :-)
Cheer,
