#SumoCHIP

SumoCHIP is an extremely low-budget robotics platform based on CHIP single-board computer developed by Robotics Club of Estonian IT College. SumoCHIP is designed for teaching soldering, electronics, programming and networking. We kept SumoCHIP daughterboard PCB design single-sided so it would be easy to etch at home or school.

##Documentation

Documentation will be available in various languages:

• Estonian
• English

##Kits

Being completely open hardware you can order the components and assemble the robot yourself with the prices stated in the bill of materials page. Robotics Club of Estonian IT College provides kits within EU which saves you the hassle of purchasing invidual components online.

When ordering please specify whether you want PCB to be soldered or not, soldered board adds extra 10 EUR to the price. We can also ship custom configurations of components. Donations are used to renew the equipment of robotics club so we could continue doing cool stuff!

To order send us e-mail and we'll reply with an invoice PDF. Within EU standard SEPA payments are expected. Once payment is received the kits will be shipped with standard mail services once a week.

##Software

The current implementation is based on Python and Flask. In future we might add kernel module for generating fine grained PWM signals to achieve better timing granularity for servo motors.
