- End-of-year project 2023For the 3rd year running, the “end-of-year project”, which concludes our students’ first year, allowed them to put their newly-acquired computer science, electronics and physics skills into practice on their esieabot. This year’s topic was simple: they had to design a team of autonomous firefighting robots to extinguish flames in a field. These flames, symbolized… Read more: End-of-year project 2023
- esieabot @ RIE 2023esieabot was present this year at the 14th Robotics in Eduction conference in Cyprus. Alexandre Brière, Pierre Courbin, Gauthier Heiss and Elodie Queney presented a research paper entitled “esieabot: a low-cost, open-source, modular robot platform used in an engineering curriculum”. They presented esieabot and its integration into ESIEA’s pedagogy. In particular, the advantages of the… Read more: esieabot @ RIE 2023
- End-of-year project 2022Like every year, our first-year students close their semester with a full week dedicated to carrying out a project around the esieabot. The subject this year is simple: build from common and recyclable materials (cardboard, paper, paperclips, string, etc.) a motorized catapult on their esieabot, remotely controlled in order to compete in a final challenge… Read more: End-of-year project 2022
Having fun while learning!
Each part of the kit has been chosen to improve your digital skills.
GNU/Linux OS
Fully open-source, multiple linux-based operating systems can be used, notably Raspberry Pi OS (formely known as Raspbian).
5Mpx Camera
Directly connected to the Raspberry Pi, a 5mpx camera offers you the possibility of taking photos and videos. Ideal for creating an autonomous vehicle!
Raspberry Pi
A true micro-computer, the Raspberry Pi 0 WH controls your whole esieabot. Many extensions are possible, such as the addition of servomotors or sensors.
Programmable in Python or C
Programmable in Python or C, you can also add artificial intelligence to your esieabot thanks to TensorFlow Lite.
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
Your esieabot has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, allowing control via a wireless controller or mobile app.
Joypad USB included
