Robotics doesn’t need to be about building intimidating humanoid automatons. We can build much less intimidating machines that can perform all kinds of useful, instructive or fun functions. Even better, you can power them with Linux. What’s more, we don’t need costly, state-of-the-art electronics to build these devices – a Raspberry Pi and will do just fine. It doesn’t need to be any more advanced than putting Lego together. There are all manner of off-the-shelf kits suitable for any electronics enthusiast.
A Pi robot can run the same Raspbian Linux we all know and love. It can connect to wireless networks, so you can SSH in and perform diagnostics while it’s on the move.
