Want To Make Your Own Merapi Robot?

February 2, 2009 · 2 Comments

Once of the questions that we get when we do the Merapi demos is "Where can I get a robot like that?".  The robot is a LEGO Mindstorms NXT and can easily be purchased from Amazon or eBay.  Once you get it, you should have all the parts you need to put together your own robot that you can then use Merapi to control via Bluetooth.  There are enough motors and sensors included in the kit to allow your imagination to run wild.  So, go get yours and start building some cool AIR / LEGO mashups today.
