Butiá Project

For full documentation please see Página_principal (in Spanish)

This project aims to create a simple platform, which makes ​​more available to school students or high school students the tools to enable them to internalize behaviors programming for robots. The project seeks to expand the performance of the OLPC XO computer through Butiá's sensory capabilities, turning it into a mobile robotic platform. Currently 1.0 Project implementation is in kit form, distributed to 28 public schools in Uruguay, with a set of sensors and components for mounting the sensors on the mobile platform where you put the XO computer. The Butiá project was developed keeping in mind the fact that adding new sensors or actuators to the platform is very simple, this opens the possibility for interested users to easily implement their own sensors and actuators. Even the industrial design of the robot is open allowing construction with recycled or low cost materials.

USB4butia

See also Usb4butia (in Spanish)

USB4Butiá is an input/output/USB board derived from the Usb4all and a shield made ​​for that card. It is easy to build and specializes in using the robot Butiá 2.0 trying to simplify use and enhance their sensory capabilities and performance in a robust manner. The general objective of board:

A board design is open and designed with the objective that its construction is possible by hand allowing their accessibility and thus design freedom (more info: USB4butia - A Truly Free (as in Freedom) Input / Output Board)

The specific objectives are:

• Low cost
• Using components available in the local market
• Having ports connectors for devices which support plug and play and hotplug
• Bus for AX12 motors
• Handling PWM servo motors
• HackPoints for low level access
