XIPMods

GEARS-EDS has partnered with Machine Science, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization dedicated to supporting hands-on engineering programs for young people, to develop a suite of electronic controls - XIPMods - designed specifically for the Heavy Metal Chassis, Surface Mobility Platform, and other GEARS robotics systems.

XIPMods are easy-to-use electronic controllers for robotics and electronics projects. They offer seamless networking and amazing power and versatility.
