D. Nielsen edited this page Oct 9, 2015 · 5 revisions

This programmable module combines with a Raspberry Pi to serve as the control center of a our robot project. Its Atmel ATmega32U4 microcontroller comes preloaded with an Arduino-compatible bootloader, and the board includes dual motor drivers that can deliver 1.8 A per channel to two brushed DC motors. An efficient voltage regulator and level shifters enable it to power and communicate with a Raspberry Pi. Note ROS Rov REV 1 we use a Teensy 2.0 USB Development Board with is based off of ATmega32U4 big different is that we will have Arduino-compatible bootloader.
