Many Logo-based and other robotics products produced by LEGO are distributed to schools in the USA by Pitsco. These include Control Lab™ and Robolab™ Information about consumer versions of some of these products is available from LEGO Mindstorms.

 

Roamer

This free-range turtle does not require connection to a computer. All the controls are on board. It is available from Terrapin Software.

 

   

Handy Cricket

The Cricket is a tiny computer, suitable for all kinds of robotics projects, that you can program using Logo. You can control motors and lights,receive information fromtouch, light, temperature, and other sensors. Crickets can "talk" to each other, sending messages with infrared (IR) light. People have used Crickets to build little robots, animated rocking horses, automatic gift boxes, and other personal animated toys. People have used Crickets to collect a bunch of temperature readings or other data and look at them later.
