Abstract
The Engino Robotics Platform Controller, which is presented in this paper, is a control box intended for primary and early secondary education students. It is used to teach basic control, robotics and technology based courses. Along with the controller a series of external sensors have been developed that can be directly connected to the controller. The controller and the sensors allow students to build robots and other automated or interactive systems using the Engino components.
