The Parallax motor mount is the wheel kit for the other two kits. This motor is the aluminium version so it provides a toughened chassis over the plastic. It can hold a total of 27kg with rugged tyres. Two independent motors drive the wheels so you can get the odometry feedback of your choice.
The Arlo robot is a mobile robot design to carry payloads. It is an indoor robot and uses a microcontroller for control. It is highly customizable with sensors and computers.

The Arlo Robotic System provides the basic hardware to build a mid-size robotics platform ideal for telepresence and autonomous robots. The format is one of a two-wheeled buggy with castors fore and aft. The user can then attach the processor board, motor control boards and sensor/actuator modules to suit their application.
