New Additions: Parallax BOE-Bot and more
September 7th, 2007 by DaveWe’ve recently added a bunch of Parallax products to our catalog, including the ever-popular BOE-Bot! Check this stuff out:
BOE-BOT Full Kit - USB: Based around the Parallax BOE (Board of Education) development board, this flexible and educational robotics platform is intuitive enough for beginners, but has enough potential to keep seasoned hobbyists interested.
BASIC Stamp 2: The BASIC Stamp family of microcontrollers is one of the most popular in the educational and hobbyist robotics communities. The Stamp can be programmed using the PBASIC language, which is very similar to good old fashioned BASIC. This module can run on its own or in conjunction with a development board, such as the BOE.
Parallax RFID Card Reader: Simple, yet highly effective. This reader, much like the Phidgets reader, is compatible with 125kHz EM4102 tags. Unlike the Phidgets reader, this one features TTL serial communication, so it’s perfect for interfacing with microcontrollers, such as the BASIC Stamp.
Parallax Servo Controller (USB): Allows you to control 16 servos from your computer’s USB port.
Parallax Servo Controller (Serial): Control 16 servos via a TTL serial bus. Goes perfectly with microcontrollers, such as the BASIC Stamp.
Parallax (Futaba) Continuous Rotation Servo: This is a Futaba servo manufactured for continuous rotation. It gives you accurate and reliable speed control, and it can be controlled by any standard servo controller. Great for small robots, like the BOE-Bot.
Hatachi HM55B Compass Module: Is your robot having trouble finding its bearings? Then it needs one of these.
Memsic 2125 Accelerometer: Measures acceleration along two axes. Extra-small DIP package conserves space on your breadboard or PCB.
Stay tuned for more exciting additions to our catalog!
