🔎 Arduino Alvik Robotics Platform // Unboxing

‪@Arduino‬'s new Alvik robot platform is now available for purchase! Hackster's Alex Glow unboxes this clever little kit, which runs on an Arduino Nano ESP32 and also features an embedded STM32 Arm Cortex M4 on the chassis. Its many talents include color, light, and distance sensing, a six-axis gyroscope and accelerometer, and seven capacitive touch buttons. For outputs, you have two high-precision DC motors, plus tons of connectors for servos and I2C plug-and-play modules. And while it's plenty expressive on its own - with an RGB LED and an adorable little face! - the kit includes LEGO Technic and M3 screw connectors so you can make it your own.

the tip about documenting projects is so great, I *have* to get better about doing that!

[@wilgarcia1]

maybe try off-road RC car servos. they are really tough. cause they have to take all the crashes.

I love your videos. You are my prefer tech girl. Thanks to you I learn many cool things

The ESP32-C6 would have been nice to be able to play around with Zigbee.
