The Banshi Robotic Arm is an affordable robot for the hobbyist. It is ideally suited to learn the basics of electronics, mechanics and programming. The Banshi is controlled by a powerful ATMEGA64 microcontroller that is programmable via open source tools in C.
The robot comes with many example programs already written. Easily download them to the robot using the supplied USB interface and the RobotLoader software. Or write your own custom programs using the free open-source WinAVR software.
Control the robot using the included keyboard or RACS software. Using the software you can record the movements of the Banshi and play them back.
The I/Os (in and outputs), together with the flexible I 2 C bus system, allow the addition of extra modules thus enabling the robot to react to its environment.
