Review of White Box 914 PC-Bot

Posted 10 Jun 2005 at 15:07 UTC by steve Share This

Timster over at Mobile Robotics managed to get his hands on a White Box model 914 PC-Bot before us and has written a nice review. There are lots of photos of the exterior and interior as well descriptions of what it can do. Tom Burick of White Box has been working on getting the PC-Bot to market for a long time so it will be interesting to see how they do. For more see our many previous stories on the White Box PC-Bots.

I hope there's an option for an __arm__, posted 11 Jun 2005 at 22:39 UTC by Ragooman » (Apprentice)

This looks like a great platform to work with. Reminds me of the early days when the RB5X, Androbot and the Hero were the mainstream robots but now with a lot more brain power. I couldn't see on the website under the options on whether this includes an arm, a must have for a mobile robot. How else can it fetch beer? (not a rhetorical question)
