The 4WD Hercules Robotics Platform from Seeed Studio includes the Hercules programmable motor controller which can supply 15A of continuous current, enough grunt for the toughest robot. Key components are made from durable aluminium alloy for extra strength and durability. The Hercules 15A, 6 to 20V DC motor controller has an onboard Atmega328 making it an Arduino compatible combined motor driver and microcontroller. It has sockets for the motors to just plug-in plus 4 x Grove sockets for sensors, displays and switches. To program or control the robot, there's a UartSBee V4 wireless interface board. Connect it to the controller for over the air (OTA) programming from your own XBee compatible hardware or use as part of a remote control setup. Supplied as a self-assembly kit with chassis components, wheels and motors, the motor controller, and a 2200mAh Li-Poly battery and charger plus nuts, bolts and spacers. Once you've completed the straight forward build you're ready to take on the world.
