AVR Bootloader :
AVR Boot Loader from NEX Robotics
All AVR microcontrollers can be programmed using various methods such as In System Programming (ISP), parallel programming and boot loading etc. Advantage with the boot loader is that you don’t need any external hardware to load .hex file on the microcontroller. Almost all the AVR microcontroller based robots and development boards from the NEX Robotics supports this bootloader.
