Harvard Researchers Build $10 Robot That Can Teach Kids to Code | WIRED


AERobot (Affordable Education Robot)

Complete robot system and curriculum to inspire and help students learn
Based on an Atmega168a  CPU it's capable as running as an Arduino if the boot loads is installed.  and a A3901 Motor Driver.
the Sanyo NRD2574I Surface Mount Micro Motors designed for vibrating Cell Phones.  https://solarbotics.com/download.php?file=373

AERobot, a bot that can help teach programming and artificial intelligence to middle school kids and high schooler. That may seem like a rather expensive luxury for most schools, but it's not. It costs just $10.70. The hope is that it can help push more kids into STEM, studies involving science, technology, engineering, and math.
