Microsoft Windows 10 IOT Can for Raft Robot

Thinking of creating a project Internet of Things (IOT) or a robot? Microsoft promises ease to assemble with Windows 10 Starter Kit IOT. In the Starter Kit package for Windows IOT Core and Raspberry Pi 2, supplied equipment such as sensors, electronic components, and various types of cables that are compatible with Windows 10. Package offered by Microsoft in collaboration with Adafruit's online community allows users to create a prototype and build a machine that could send back information to a database. For example, the starter kit can be used to make weather stations that generate data based on interaction with the environment, or communicate with analog photocell sensor to measure light intensity. In fact, the starter kit can also be used to create a robot with wheels legs that can be controlled via a joystick and a Raspberry Pi Unfortunately, the starter kit is sold out in just a few minutes after it was released.
