Ben Heck does an unboxing of the TI Robotics System Learning Kit. He’ll show you what’s in the box for the Maze Edition Starter KitMaze Edition Starter Kit and what’s included with the Upgrade Kit Upgrade Kit that used to take the TI-RSLK from Basic to Advanced. You’ll get to see what the robot looks like in its assembled form with the basic kit and what you can do with it using the components from the upgrade kit.

The TI-RSLK Maze EditionTI-RSLK Maze Edition curriculum comes with 20 learning modules covering basic to advanced topics. Each module is complete with lecture videos and slides, lab documentation and demonstration videos, quizzes and classroom activities. The TI-RSLK is targeted to teach embedded systems and applications, and can be expanded and used in a variety of engineering classes.

The curriculum covers:

Electrical engineering concepts such as voltage, current, power and energy
Microcontroller interfacing with sensors, actuators, and motors; concepts of pulse width modulation, flash ROM, analog to digital conversion, digital to analog conversion, and serial data transmission
Software design and testing using multithreading, and debugging
Fundamental theories such as Nyquist, Central Limit and Little’s Law
Building systems using finite state machines (FSM), closed loop control, Bluetooth® low energy, and Internet of Things
