The Solarbotics Sumovore is a strong, modular design with over 500 man-hours of development and 21 prototypes behind it. It sets a new standard in mini-sumo kits by providing winning power, speed and flexibility at an amazingly low price.
This kit features:
Powerful GM8 gearmotors powered by a robust L293D motor driver
Four opto-reflector edge sensors (fifth edge sensor position available when using microprocessor brainboard)
Two 38kHz IR emitters and detectors for opponent detection
Sumovore sets the standard for mini-sumo kits with its outstanding power drive, complete sensor array, modular design and outstanding price. Sumovore's designers invested over 500 man-hours of development time and built 21 prototypes to get this kit right. It shows. It meets the size and weight for official mini-sumo competition and it is built to win!
We are now shipping the upgraded Sumovore with steel base plate. Catalog number: 21691. Brand: Solarbotics. Brand's Part Number: KSV.
This is a complete bundle of everything you need to build and begin programming your Sumovore using the Basic Stamp microcontroller using the serial interface on your computer. Catalog number: 21709. Brand: Tinkering Supplies. Brand's Part Number: H02170-01C.
This upgrade brain board for Sumovore turns it into a programmable robot powered by a Microchip PIC 16F877A. This board replaces the Sumovore's discreet brainboard and features:
33 I/O lines
Eight 10-bit ADC
Two PWM channels
In-circuit programming
Five indicator LEDs
Three servo/aux headers
Extra breadboarding space for customized support circuitry
5-pin and RJ11-6 programming headers
The kit includes the 16F877A which comes pre-programmed with mini-sumo and line-follower behaviors. You will have to fabricate your own programming cable starting with a standard PC printer cable (not included). Instructions are provided in the assembly manual. Catalog number: 18051. Brand: Solarbotics. Brand's Part Number: KSV-PIC.
This upgrade brain board for Sumovore turns it into a programmable robot powered by an Amtel ATmega8 microcontroller. Catalog number: 17038. Brand: Solarbotics. Brand's Part Number: KSV-Amtel.
This upgrade brain board for Sumovore turns it into a programmable powerhouse. It accepts either a standard 24-pin Parallax Basic Stamp module such as a
BASIC Stamp 2 Module or a HVW Technologies
Stamp Stack II Kit. Catalog number: 11684. Brand: Solarbotics. Brand's Part Number: KSV-BS2.
The stamp stack is a small module that contains a genuine Parallax Basic Stamp interpreter chip and all other required stamp module components plus a DB-9 connector for programming. It is a great product for development or classroom use since its through-hole components and socketed interpreter chip make it easily repairable. This is a soldering kit with all required components. Catalog number: 10157. Brand: Tinkering Supplies. Brand's Part Number: H01015-01L.
