Turtle Kit: A 2WD DIY Arduino Robotics Kit For Beginner

With just a few simple steps of assembling the hardware and tuning the software, and you'll learn all about Arduino, robotics, sensors, bluetooth communication — as well as obstacle avoidance and remote controlling. You can also take it further with your own code to take advantage of the ultrasonic sensor, Romeo ( a Bluetooth 4.0 (BLE) Arduino Microcontroller ) , IR distance sensors and LEDs.

The Turtle 2WD Mobile Platform is a small, low-cost mobile platform compatible with standard Arduino microcontrollers. It contains two drive motors, wheels (and rear caster ball), frame and all mounting hardware. It is widely used as self-developed control chasis for Arduino platforms and other control boards. The Turtle 2WD has multiple features such as: two differential drives, near zero turning radius, high-strength aluminum alloy body material, motors and a flexible rubber wheel makes it suitable for indoor flat road surface and flat-platform robot competitions. The top layer includes a standard servo socket and the three optional sensor holder. This three sensor holder fits with our adjustable IR range sensor. The servo can be used for a simple rotation platform, a two degrees of freedom camera holder or even a robotic arm.

Thanks to Romeo BLE, the kit can be controllered by APP (IOS). Simply download an APP (GoBLE) to enjoy the control from your IOS device.
