This manual should answer all of your questions. We suggest that you read and understand all of it before using your new robot. If you have any questions, please view our web site at The software provided is designed for use with IBM-style personal computers. This manual assumes the user has full understanding of how to use their computer and operating system. Refer to the documentation for the computer for additional information. ARobot is designed for the beginning robot hobbyist, but if it looks beyond your skill level, please return the unit before going any further. Parents: If you’re buying ARobot for a young person, be prepared to help them. About ARobot The ARobot (pronounced "A robot") is a computer controlled mobile robot designed for hobbyists and educators. Ages 16 and up (younger if helped by an adult) can enjoy unlimited experimentation by programming the on-board Basic Stamp II control computer. Learn and use concepts such as computer programming, motion control, sensor reading, path planning, object avoidance, and more. Easily assembled in a few hours using common hand tools (no soldering required). Connect ARobot to your personal computer for programming and begin your adventure. Basic Stamp II Control Computer The Basic Stamp II is a small, self-contained computer controller manufactured by Parallax Inc. This easy-to-use system is programmed using a Basic-like language called PBasic. Programs are written on an IBM-style PC then downloaded to the Basic Stamp II for execution. Large libraries of programs can be created and saved. ARobot's controller board accepts the Basic Stamp II (purchased separately) which controls motors, LEDs, buzzer, and other devices. The Parallax Web site at provides complete information about the Basic Stamp II including the programming manual. ARobot is a versatile system that can perform a variety of tasks. Here are just a few examples: Hobby robotics projects. Education and training. Research in artificial intelligence, A-life, etc. Science projects. Testing platform for navigation algorithms. Simulation of planetary exploration. Maze solving. Contests. Publicity. Fun, Fun, Fun! 1 What You’ll Need To build and program ARobot you will need the following items: Common hand tools – screwdriver, pliers, etc. Your choice of spray paint (optional). Basic Stamp II computer chip. Basic Stamp II programming information – available free on the Internet or you can purchase a book. Understanding of Basic programming or a willingness to learn. IBM style PC running DOS or Windows, 3-1/2“ disk drive, unused serial port (9 pin connector). Internet access for technical support and application notes. 8 AA batteries. (over 5 hours of continuous run time). A never-ending desire to experiment and play with robots! Note: Expansion may require knowledge of electronics, soldering and other advanced skills.
