Chapter 10. Controlling a Robot

The Hardware Platform

For the purpose of these projects, we will use the Freescale i-MXS development kit. This provides a complete implementation of the .NET Micro Framework platform on a single board, including input keys, a quarter Video Graphics Adapter (QVGA) display; and a number of interfaces, including a serial port that we will use to talk to the robot.
