Handy Board
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Handy Board is a popular handheld robotics controller. The Handy Board was designed by Fred G. Martin at MIT (now at UMass Lowell), and the design is licensed free of charge. Thus, several manufacturers make Handy Boards. The Handy Board is used by hundreds of schools worldwide and by many hobbyists for their robot projects.
