Everything you need to get a Create 2 robot running via Raspberry Pi with a minimum amount of Python code
Pair your Create 2 with a microcomputer and a camera. Then drive around and see what your robot sees.
Integrate 3D sensing technology with Create 2, add significant computational power and do all the above cheaply!
We need to stop wasting energy by not turning off lights. So, we have a robot that will remind you if you don't.
Have you recently downloaded Pokémon™ Go? Are you trying to be the very best and catch ‘em all? Don’t actually want to get off the couch and walk to hatch those eggs? We’ve got a solution for you!
Have you ever wanted to program a robot to play music from one of your favorite space movies? With the help of Python (and maybe
the force) you to can have your own robot symphony!
This project is an easy entry point into experimenting with robotics for people without a background in electronics. Building a roombot requires no soldering and no programming cables or low-level languages. After setting up your roombot you can write code to connect to and control the roombot.
So you want to impress your friends with a roaming, robotic DJ at your next party...here’s how to do it.
Haven't you always wanted a DJ Turntable System using the most advanced robot of the future?! Well here you go...
How about a cool alarm clock, or a sentry security camera? Well this project does just that.
Use the lightpainting tutorial to create LED images viewable with long exposure photography.
The folks at Back Flip Films need help cleaning up after their weekly Nerf wars. To assist with this Ben will set out on a three part journey to build a Create that can collect Nerf darts and bring them back to home base.
This is a demonstration of the Roomba Path Walker. The project is intended to demonstrate robot programming. Robots are not "smart", they simply following instructions.
This simple Python API is ideal for beginning Python students.
Buying a telepresence robot is usually pretty expensive, and all you can do is drive a video chat on a moving platform. I believe that an ideal telepresence experience should be much more imersive!
Connect your computer to Create 2 and control the robot’s every move.
Connect to your computer and control the robot using Python.
In this tutorial, learn how to use the iRobot Create 2 to drive around and stream video over the wireless network.
This toolbox provides a set of intuitive, high level functions (a.k.a. wrappers) that allows you to easily control the Create 2’s sensors and actuators from a PC running MATLAB.
