Could you tell me about some robots kits helpful in robotics?


Well, I’m sixteen year school student and I have some interest in electronics especially computer. I have been interested in robotics since the age 10 but never got an opportunity to install. Two days ago, I have come to know about robots kits and I want to start now with the help of these robots kits. Could you tell me about some robots kits helpful in robotics? I found some kits that looked pretty good but they were over my budget and I can invest only $30. Please help me.

Streak is the outdoor robot with around 4 High Torque DC Geared motors and some high quality 10 CM wheels. The robot has one payload capacity of about 7 KG weight on the flat surfaces and up to around 3 KG on rough terrain. The robot is just controlled through Rhino Robot controller board which is very much powered by AVR Atmega16A microcontroller, its completely expandable and it can be connected to multiple boards and the sensors with ease. The board even comes with the USB boot loader so that it can even be programmed through the PC easily. The kit just also includes one carry plate for Laptop and around 3 Sharp IR or the Ultrasonic sensors (sensors optional). Any type of standard laptop can be easily strapped over this robot. The laptop can even communicate with robot board through your USB port and program/control the robot.
