Meet Fred – a distributed processor bot using 12 Arduino’s and I2C to communicate between boards
Bruce writes-
Fred is a distributed processor bot using 12 Arduino’s and I2C to communicate between boards. Oh and the name started while I was coding the voice recognition board I needed a name to get the robots attention. The mechanical and electronics are about 85% complete after 5 months of building. Lots of the code is written and partly tested but needs to be ironed out with the full system with board interactions. I only have nights and weekends to work on Fred dam day job gets in the way of fun. I’m planning on showing off Fred in the near future at one of your Show & Tells.
Awesome !
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, or even use Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for MakeCode, CircuitPython, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
