Teaching packages...

I don't know the cost of the individual controllers, but it is my understanding the Innovation First is going to try to sell something like a teachers kit that will allow a teacher to have groups of kids make mini-robots to play a mini-robotic game.

I think that the entire kit was targeted to cost $10K or so. Before you get scared, I think that included enough controllers for an effective class as well as enough motors, "erector-set" stuff, wheels, etc. to make a classroom full of mini-robots.

I am sure that Tony & Bob will have something more to say about it soon.
