MOTION 2350 Pro: The Ultimate Beginner-Friendly Robotics Controller with Advanced Capabilities

Cytron has recently launched the Motion 2350 Pro an advanced robotic controller powered by the Raspberry Pi for building advanced robots with less effort. It has the latest upgraded RP2350 processor, which is the successor of RP2340.

The controller also has an advanced DC motor driver, which can control up to 4 brushed DC motors (3A Max each channel) with 3.6V to 16V voltage ratings. You can build powerful robots using a robust 4 channel driver. You can connect different types of components and sensors with 8-channel 5V servo ports, 8-channel GPIO breakouts, and 3 Maker Ports. Additionally, it comes with a USB host, which can be used as a USB joystick or USB gamepad.

One of its special features is the ‘Maker’ feature, which is a signature feature of Cryton products. The printed GPIO references and colored headers help beginners use this controller correctly. You can test the motor driver with its built-in quick test buttons and motor output LEDs without any code. Additionally, it has LED indicators for each Digitial IO pin so that you can easily handle it with simple commands using the test buttons and piezo buzzer.

Additional features that the company shares on its product page are described below:

• Apart from these features, the Motion 2350 Pro combines the Raspberry Pi Pico 2, which is an advanced robot controller.
• Having a simple and user-friendly interface for beginners to understand robotics or programming.
• A quick set-up instruction guide is available.
• Compatible with various types of motors like DC, servo, and stepper.
• Pre-loaded software, firmware, libraries, and resources for different types of users.
• Equipped with sensors for obstacle detection, line following, etc.
• Supports multiple programming languages such as Python, C, C++, and Arduino IDE (coming soon).
• Additional modules and sensors allow beginners to expand their projects and gain experience.
