The RP6 offers a very flexible and universal expansion System. It is based on the two wire I2C-Bus, which allows you to connect up to 127 devices to the Robot. You can add several expansion modules on top of the Robot, which can be mounted symmetrically on front and rear. TheRobotshop.com plans to release several expansion modules with additional sensors in the near future. Of course, there is already the Experiment module for your own circuits included with the Robot and also available seperately. The RP6 is ideal for education purposes at universities or schools and of course for hobby users!





It comes with a very extensive manual along with lots of example programs and a hughe C function library. This makes programming easy and you can instantly start with the Robot. All library and example programs are open source (GNU GPL)!

Name RP6 Programmable Robot Platform
More Features: The Robot is the predecessor of the very successful C-Control RP5 (CCRP5), released in 2003. The RP6 only reuses the chassis of the RP5 with some additional mounting posibilities. Everything else is a complete redesign. New control electronics with much bigger and faster Processor, new gearing system for noise reduction, 150x higher encoder resolution (625 CPR) for precise speed regulation and several other new features like an USB Interface, a Bumper Panel in front of the Robot, a very flexible I²C-Bus based Expansion System and the six small expansion areas on the Mainboard.

Lots of expansion modules are planned or already available. For example the RP6 CONTROL M32 processor expansion board with additonal ATMEGA32, external 32KB SPI EEPROM, LC-Display Port, Microphone sensor, Buttons, LEDs, a Beeper, free I/Os and ADCs is already available. And of course the experimentation board for your own circuits, which is already included in the RP6 Robot System and available seperately!
