Romeo for Intel® Edison Controller

SKU: DFR0350

Romeo for Intel Edison is a multi-purpose robotics development platform based on Intel Edison and Arduino SoC. Compatible with Arduino/Linux, it supports Java/C and works with thousands of existing shields (switches, sensors, etc.). Integrated 2-way DC motor driver and wireless capability enable immediate project start without extra hardware. It inherits all functions of the Romeo all-in-one controller, ideal for robotics applications.
