Hello. For the Activitybot, what kinds of tools or accessories do I need?
Screw drivers, a bag full of resistors, leds, and random sensors for breadboarding with it. Other than that the assembly is straight forward. The nuts can be a little small and hard to reach when attaching the servo motor so having a small wrench helps.
Accessories can be extra sensors and whatever you want to throw on it. The micro-controller has a lot of general purpose I/O you can use.
All parts needed for the Activitybot are included with the product (even the screwdriver!)

The breadboard on the activity bot board makes it really easy to attach new sensors to your robot. Also it seems like there is no pan-tilt mechanism included for the ping system. That is always fun to add so that your robot can roam better around the room.
