Dexter Industries<\/a>, who have really been making their mark on the Raspberry Pi community with their GoPiGo robotics kit<\/a>, have just launched a new crowdfunding campaign<\/a>. The GoBox<\/a> is a 12-month subscription during which you receive a full robotics kit (starting with the new GoPiGo 2) and then monthly instalments of sensors (such as ultrasonic, sound and light) and accessories to extend the kit. There are Earlybird deals to be had with impressive discounts, so head over to the Kickstarter to take a look<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I wish the Dexter team good luck with their campaign – it’s a lovely idea for ongoing learning and their kit is top-notch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
