Join the testing of Open-Cube, an alternative control cube for learning robotics and programming in (Micro)Python

Open-Cube is a new platform based on the popular Raspberry Pi PICO. It aims to replace the now hard to find or worn out LEGO Mindstorms that have been used so far in the Robots course or in various robotics competitions. It supports sensors and motors from both the NXT and EV3 kits, as well as self-developed sensors such as the laser rangefinder. Open-Cube is meant to be an open platform with available HW and FW source files that anyone can build and possibly contribute their own ideas to its development.
