RCUBE - a multipurpose platform for mobile systems in education
- Since 1995 mobile robot systems have been investigated and included in the education process. Using commercial and/or open source platforms like LEGO-techniques with the 6.270-Board [5], the EyeBot controller [3] or the PIONEER robots [10] various aspects of mobility, sensing, control and navigation were taken into account. The limited abilities of all these platforms in computing power or image processing required the development of a new hardware platform called RCUBE [2], [11]Since 1995 mobile robot systems have been investigated and included in the education process.

The limited abilities of all these platforms in computing power or image processing required the development of a new hardware platform called RCUBE [2], [11] combining the features of a typical actuator-sensor-input-outputboard with computing power and image recognition capabilities. The system is suitable as a compact platform for universities, small enterprises and private developers.…
