RoBoard - the heart of robotics, making your robot more active and intelligent. This is not just a simple robot controller, but a truly computer based solution using the Vortex86DX, a 32bit x86 CPU running at 1000MHz with 256MB DRAM.
RoBoard allows users to install the Windows and Linux series O/S through the MicroSD card as bootable storage, allowing users to more easily develop PC based robotic applications. RoBoard is an advanced robot controller for advanced robot development and therefore makes an excellent platform for Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio development. There is also a code sample available to retrofit the Kondo Humanoid Robot with a RoBoard.
