SMD EDUCATION KIT for Teaching Robotics Sensors and Actuators

Description

• SMD EDUCATION KIT offers multiple SMD products for learning robotics sensors and actuators
• SMD RED Brushed DC Motor Driver, a smart motor controller for robotics and mechatronics
• Use it with PC (SMD UI or Python) or with your own Rasperry Pi, Jetson Nano (Python only)
• Courseware for Matlab/Simulink, examples available for Python and others
• Free-shipping available

ACROME SMD (Smart Motion Devices) products are modular products designed to simplify the creation of robotics and mechatronics systems with a holistic electronics, mechanics and software approach. The main electronic part of the product family is SMD Motor Driver boards, which can be daisy-chained with each other using an optimized message protocol over a multidrop RS-485 communication link.

This kit provides an educational package for robotics and sensors with the user friendly SMD ecosystem. See https://www./collections/acrome for more details about all the SMD products that are delivered with this kit.

Note: A PC or controller with a USB host port (such as Raspberry Pi, Jetson etc) is required to use the SMD products.
