Current robotic solutions lack the compute power and hardware features to enable inventors to get up and running fast. Interbotix and Intel make it easy to learn ROS with the TurtleBot* 2i platform. This transformative solution integrates Intel® RealSense technology and Intel® Joule™ technology to significantly lower the time and cost of getting started in mobile research robotics. The streamlined TurtleBot* 2i platform is a revolutionary advancement in the market with standardized configuration for engineers, researchers, and robotics students.
First, you may be thinking, ‘what the heck is a Maker?’ Simply put, a Maker is anyone who creates from scratch, whether you use wood, wool, or wires. At Intel we often incorporate all three. Watch the video to hear what inspires Makers.
Not a programming wizard? Don’t worry. It's easier than you think to start making with Intel technology, kits, beginner projects, and how-to video tutorials.
What you need:
A development board is a set of circuits you can program from your computer to do specific jobs. For example, the Arduino 101* board is plugged into your computer via a USB cord, and it's equipped with the Intel® Curie™ module, which has embedded sensors that make it perfect for building wearable technology.
Building the next amazing thing just got easier. The Arduino 101* (branded Genuino 101* in some countries) comprises powerful features that make creating projects simple, even for beginning Makers.
Designed specifically for makers, students, educators, and DIY electronics enthusiasts, the Intel® Galileo Gen 2 board is Arduino certified and built on fully open-source hardware.
Bring your ideas to life with the cutting edge, adaptive Intel® Edison module, made for a range of prototyping projects and commercial ventures.
Go from prototype to product realization fast with the high-performance and sophistication of the Intel® Joule™ module and Intel® Joule™ developer kit.
