3pi+ 32U4 Robot - Turtle Edition (75:1 LP Motors), Assembled

The Pololu 3pi+ 32U4 robot is a complete, high-performance mobile platform based on the Arduino-compatible ATmega32U4 MCU. Its many features include dual quadrature encoders for closed-loop speed or position control, line sensors, front bump sensors, and a full IMU (3-axis accelerometer, magnetometer, and gyro), all packed into a robot that fits in the palm of your hand. This Turtle Edition version is assembled with 75:1 LP 6V Micro Metal Gearmotors, which allow for longer battery life than the other editions. The maximum robot speed is approximately 0.4 m/s, making it well suited for applications where slow, controlled speed is important, such as coordinated swarm robots and introductory robotics courses.

What else you will need:

• four AAA batteries: the 3pi+ robot works with both alkaline and NiMH batteries, though we recommend rechargeable NiMH cells
• a USB A to Micro-B cable to connect the robot to your computer for programming and debugging
