Unboxing and Review: Arduino Alvik - The New Microcontroller Robot
In this video, we unbox and review the new Arduino Alvik, a microcontroller-based robot that costs around 130 euros. We examine its key features such as the laser rangefinder, 18650 battery slot, two 6-volt motors with encoders, array of line-following and color sensors, and the Arduino Nano ESP32 with additional storage. The Alvik also includes multiple connectors, gyroscope, and indicator buttons. Pre-loaded with programs, the robot supports MicroPython, Arduino C, and upcoming block-based programming. The video demonstrates flashing lights using a simple MicroPython program and provides insights on the build quality and design. Lastly, it touches on some minor issues like scuffing on the PCB and USB-C connector usage.
