Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Robotics as the discipline becomes popular subject in many universities and schools. A lot of vendors produce various types of robots for teaching robotics. But most of robots are vendor-dependent, without source code and expensive. Aim of this paper is the development of a robot platform, which can be used in teaching subjects as Robotics, Control Theory, Machine Vision, Object Recognition, and which can be bought by students or pupils and used for projects or competitions. To reach this aims we developed IICT-bot - cheap, flexible, fitted for outdoor usage, and multi-functional robotic platform using omni-directional wheels. IICT-bot is built on Arduino, which is popular hardware-platform with open architecture and easy-to-use API.
