Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Qfix robot kits are an education tool for teaching robotics. They are used in schools, high schools and mechatronics training in companies. However, the robot kits are also used by hobby robot builders. Like Lego mindstorms, it is a robot kit consisting of mechanics parts, a controller, different sensors and actuators, and a software environment in order to program the constructed robot. Unlike Lego, in qfix the mechanical parts are made of aluminium. Mechanical elements include bars and plates, holders for motors and sensors, axes and wheels. For electronics components, Atmel controllers are used. The components are modular and can be connected via IA C bus. The qfix kits can be programmed from the PC, either in C++ by using the WinAVR environment or with a graphical programming environment called GRAPE . Programs can be downloaded to the qfix controller board via parallel or USB link. The qfix kits are often found in the RoboCup Junior competition where soccer robots are built of the kit's components.
