What's the best MCU for a Robot?
« on: September 11, 2012, 08:47:09 AM »
 ::) ::)Hello everybody, I am pretty curious to know about whats the best MCU i can use to make a robot.

I am about to start my final project, which i want to make a robot that avoid obstacles, i would like to know which one and why?
Also whats the difference between them?  :o
 
I was going to use a ATMEGA128 but reading about it, made me confused. :-\

Take a look at this --> What is the best microcontroller?   ;)

FYI, ATMEGA128 is NOT MCU, it's a microcontroller.

What and how many sensors are You planning to use?

I use the Serializer, now the Element from cmrobot.com. I control three robots from one computer using the Xbee board. Works great. I purchased this board because it has everything I need built in one board and is easy to program using c#.
