Why Choose the Studica Robotics Building System?
High Schools and Middle Schools (7th and 8th grades) can incorporate the hands-on learning tools into their STEM curriculum to teach math, physics and computer science. College and University robotics and computer science programs can use the platform to learn about control systems, sensors, programming and concepts related to artificial intelligence. All components work easily together - no need for a machine shop or special equipment. There are many unique advantages to this cutting edge building platform, including;
- VMX Robotics Controller is the heart of an intelligent robot and includes software libraries, example code and many more features. It can be programmed with Java, C++, Python, and ROS. The VMX offers a multitude of modern digital
communications interfaces and with a Linux-based operating system, users can directly access most modern devices like Intel RealSense tracking, LIDAR, and depth cameras. - Titan Quad Motor Controller is a powerful, 4-channel CAN-based motor controller with a built-in fuse-box (for DC motors up to 20A). Features 4 hardware encoder ports, 2 power extension ports to power other 12VDC devices, a built in
LED controller, and more. - Structural Elements - The 3mm thick 6061-T6 aluminum structure is deburred, polished and blue anodized, making your robot or automation project strong, safe and stand out against the rest. The unique design pattern makes it easy to connect the structure, sprockets, motors, and gears. A large center hole makes it possible to integrate flange bearings to provide the ultimate support of shafts and motors. There are also a large variety of beams, flats, and brackets to allow you to build at multiple angles for unique chassis and mechanism. A multitude of mounting options for servos and DC motors mounts are available as well as gears, sprockets, pulleys, and chain.
- Motion Components - The Multi-Mode Smart Servo features an ultra-stout steel gear train to provide more torque. This angular programmable servo can fill a variety of roles on your robot or project. In the default mode, the servo can rotate 300 degrees while having positioning feedback. In this mode, the PWM signal will determine the position of the servo. Using the Smart Robot Servo Programmer (sold separately) the Multi-Mode Smart Servo can be configured to run in continuous, standard, and custom angular mode. A Maverick DC Gear Motor and a variety of wheel options are also available.
- STEP 3D files are available.
