The open twist: The BrickPi is based on the Atmel Atmega POU, and is powered by Arduino. Complete instructions on building, setting up and using the BrickPi are available online. The system consists of easily available components listed in the bill of materials, a circuit board, and a spot of laser cutting for which you PLJKW QHHG WR XVH DQ HxWHUQDO VHUYLFH.

Assembling the BrickPi is relatively easy. thile a little surface mount soldering is required, most of the parts are throughJhole. lnce you have all this set, you need to flash up the firmware. There is, however, no rSB communication for the Arduino and it must be programmed using an fSP programmer, such
