30 The Ultimate Palm Robot

Well, that’s a pretty good collection, and perhaps McGuyver could make a
robot out of it. You, however, are a few microcontrollers short of an iron giant.
Since you still need to collect a few parts for your PPRK, let’s look at the vari-
ous parts you’ll need and some of the places you can get them.

If You Only Had a Brain
The original PPRK was based on the Pontech SV203 controller board (you can
see a picture of it in Figure 2-3). This is the same board that you can still get in
the Acroname Palm III and Palm V kits.

Figure 2-3
This is Pontech’s web site showing the SV203.
