4tronix Pi2Go Mk2 Robot Kit for Raspberry Pi, 10 RGB LEDs

The 4tronix Pi2Go Mk2 Robot Kit is a Raspberry Pi robot platform featuring 10 individually addressable smart RGB LEDs for programmable light patterns.

Overview

The Pi2Go Mk2 is the Mk2 version of the Raspberry Pi robot platform, offering enhanced build quality and new high-grip wheels for reliable movement on various surfaces. The kit is designed as an introduction to robotics, programming, and electronics, and is suited to hobbyists, educators, and students.

Key Features

• New motor controller allowing higher speeds and optional braking on stop
• Wheel sensors built into both wheels for speed and distance measurement
• 10 individually addressable smart RGB LEDs
• 4 analogue light sensors, one in each corner, for navigating and reacting to the environment
• Two edge connector slots providing I2C GPIO access, compatible with the Pimoroni Breakout Garden range
• Supports all 40-pin Raspberry Pi boards

Applications

The wheel sensors enable accurate speed and distance measurement, suited to line-following and other sensor-driven projects. The light sensors support obstacle-avoidance and light-seeking behaviours. The two edge connector slots allow the robot's functionality to be expanded with additional sensors and modules.

Power and Dimensions

The robot is powered by 6x AA batteries. Rechargeable batteries are recommended but are not included. With dimensions of 98 x 118 x 148 mm and a weight of 400 g, the kit is compact and sturdy, providing a versatile platform for robotics experiments.
