EyeBot

A/Prof Thomas Bräunl, The Univ. of Western Australia

EyeBot is a platform for mobile robots with wheels, walking robots or flying robots. It consists of a powerful 32-Bit microcontroller board with a graphics display and a digital grayscale or color camera. The camera is directly connected to the robot board (no frame grabber). This allows to write powerful robot control programs without a big and heavy computer system and without having to sacrifice vision - the most important sensor.

Features

• Ideal basis for programming of real time image processing
• Integrated digital camera (grayscale or color)
• Large graphics display (LCD)
• Can be extended with own mechanics and sensors to full mobile robot
• Programmed from IBM-PC or Unix workstation,
  programs are downloaded via serial line (RS-232) into RAM or Flash-ROM
• Programming in C or assembly language
