Brick Pi Raspberry Pi Lego Mindstorms Starter Kit

Description

The BrickPi allows you to connect up to 4 NXT or EV3 Motors and 5 NXT Sensors. It has a 9V battery power source that powers the motors, sensors, and Raspberry Pi, un-tethering the Pi from the wall. Finally, it has a sturdy case with holes that snap with LEGO&reg parts. The BrickPi makes robotics with Raspberry Pi simple. The BrickPi combines the hackable computing power of the Raspberry Pi with easy-to-build, modular LEGO&regs.FeaturesConnect up to 4 NXT or EV3 motorsConnect up to 5 NXT sensors, both digital and analogPowers the Raspberry Pi. Free your Raspberry Pi from the wall with the power supply of the BrickPiAttach your LEGO&reg Technic bricks to the BrickPi case and make an awesome robot!Technical SpecificationsClock: The microprocessor is run on a 16MHZ clockSerial Line: The serial line runs from the Raspberry Pi to the two Arduino chipsPower: Power is supplied to the entire unit with a 9V battery which drives power to the motors directly Power Regulation: The 9V battery is regulated to 5V depending on the model: Advanced power uses a step down regulator, and the basic model uses a switching device voltage regulator. The 5V rail supplies power to the BrickPi micro-controller, Raspberry Pi, sensor ports, and indicator LED'sMotors: Motors are controlled by the Texas Instruments SN754410PWM Control: Supplied by the Arduino, and power is provided directly by the 9V batterySensors: Sensors are powered off the 5V regulator. These can be normal digital sensors or analog sensors, which are read by the micro controllerPorts: All Ports (sensor and motor) are the Dexter Industries NXT Sockets for LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT&regPackage IncludesBrickPi Advanced Power moduleBrickPi caseBrickPi Power PackSD Card with latest Brick Pi imageWIFI DongleRaspberry Pi Model BDexter Industries has a custom Raspian image that can be downloaded hereThe BrickPi family consists ofBrickPi Starter Kit with Daughter BoardBrickPi Daughter BoardBrickPi Power PackWatch the g
