SPARK III is a universal robotic research platform based on 8051 microcontroller. SPARK III is designed by NEX Robotics in collaboration with Embedded Real-Time Systems Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, IIT Bombay.

SPARK III is based on Philips P89V52RD2FA microcontroller. It has wide range of sensors such as white line sensors, digital and analog proximity sensor, directional light sensor, position encoder etc. It is powered by Litihium ion batteries. It can be controlled remotely with IR remote control. Robot can communicate with other robots or with PC using ZigBee (IEEE 802.15.4) wireless communication module over 80 separate channels.

Unique Features
