14 14  Think of the Lynxmotion series of servo brackets as a modular building set for servos. These components are extremely versatile, making virtually any mechanical arrangement possible. It's now possible to build custom robots to your specifications! The aluminum brackets are available in black anodized aluminum and when there is need for plastic, the parts are in durable black Lexan. Ball bearings at each degree of freedom provide for precise, low friction movement. The tubing, hubs and hub connectors are precision fit and really expand what is possible to build. They are made in the USA from high quality aluminum alloy. Unlike LEGO Mindstorms and may other modular robotic building kits, the Lynxmotion Servo Erector Set (SES) is bordering custom robotics as it allows you to integrate third party sensors and products.

31 31  * **FlowBotics Studio V2**
32 32  ** Included with the SES kit is the new FlowBotics Studio V2 (which itself includes the complete FlowStone programming language!). FlowBotics Studio is an easy to use graphical and text-based, Windows -compatible software for programming and controlling anything you build without the need to create lines of code. FlowBotics Studio interacts directly with the SSC-32 servo controller via Bluetooth (no need for the BotBoarduino), off-loading all of the higher level mathematics to the computer. There is also a visual representation of each of the five sample robots which you can manipulate on screen to make it easier to position the servos for each sequence. All the tools and tutorials are available to help you build upon these samples or create your own from scratch. Sample code is available for each of the five robots outlined below.More about FlowBotics Studio can be found here.
33 33  * **Arduino**
34 34  ** The BotBoarduino is based on the Arduino Duemilanove microcontroller, which means it can be programmed in Arduino (one of the most popular and easy to use programming languages around)!. There is code available to control each of the five sample robots using the PS2 transmitter / receiver, and once you get used to programming in Arduino, you can explore the code further, and add to it, optimize it and share it with others. Robots which use only a small number of servos such as the BRAT, 2WD Rover and AL5D arm only need the BotBoarduino. Sample code is available in order to control each of the five robots below using the PS2 controller. Download Arduino here.

42 +This is one of the best servo controllers available. Control up to 32 servos with up to 1uS resolution. The controller includes four analog inputs and bidirectional communication with query commands. Synchronized, or "Group" moves are easy to do, allowing you to more easily create walking gaits (there is even a 12 Servo Hexapod Gait Sequencer built in). The SSC-32 V1 uses a DB9 connector, though you can use the included Bluetooth accessories to send commands. Should you instead want to wire it to your computer and do not have a DB9 port, there is a USB to serial adapter cable sold separately.
43 +|[[image:BBU-01.jpg]]|(% style="vertical-align:middle" %)**BotBoarduino**
44 +The BotBoarduino is an Arduino Duemilanove compatible microcontroller made specifically for the Lynxmotion robots. It's perfect for controlling your small robotic projects. It has an onboard speaker, three buttons and LED's, a reset button, logic and servo power inputs, an I/O bus with 20 pins and power and ground, and a 5vdc 1.5amp regulator. The new BotBoarduino allows you not only to control servos, but store and run programs independently of a computer. The BotBoarduino can be used in conjunction with the SSC-32 servo controller for robots requiring many servos and sensors. You can also hook up the BotBoarduino to a PS2 controller for remote control of your robotic creation. More information about the BotBoarduino can be found here.
45 +|[[image:dfrobot-bluetooth-bee.jpg]]|(% style="vertical-align:middle" %)**Bluetooth**
46 +The DFRobot Bluetooth Bee wireless module adapts XBEE design. Its compact size and pinout is compatible with XBEE modules which makes it suitable for all kinds of microcontroller systems. Default pairing code is 1234. A USB Bluetooth module is included. The USB to serial (DB9) adapter allows you to connect the module to the SSC-32 (don't forget to wire power!).
47 +|[[image:rc-01 v2.jpg]]|(% style="vertical-align:middle" %)**Lynxmotion PS2 Controller**
48 +This 2.4ghz wireless Play Station 2 style controller has a range of 10 meters when used outdoors. The controller can be connected directly to the BotBoarduino, Two analog joysticks and 16 buttons available for robot control. Dual vibration motors provide tactile feedback for robots programmed with obstacle sensors (Version 2). We are also including a USB to PS2 receiver so the PS2 remote can communicate with the computer, allowing you to control the robots virtually.
