Bobo the Robot

When designing robots, people often design in terms of the number of sensors or motors the robot has, or the program that they will write. It is important to also consider the structures that will hold all of your sensors and motors together. In this section, I’ll show you how to build your first robot, “Bobo”. Bobo will get you through most of the activities on this site. Bobo will also prove a solid platform to use in competition.
