Want to build a small robot that doesn’t look like a PCB on wheels? The Orangutan is small enough for integrating into a small robot, rather than being the small robot. With Atmel’s powerful ATmega328P AVR microcontroller, motor drivers, buttons, display, and buzzer, all you need to add is your own chassis, sensors, software… you know, the fun stuff!

- LSM303DLH Orangutan example project (5k zip)
- This sample program shows how to use an LSM303DLH 3D compass and accelerometer carrier with an Orangutan robot controller to build a tilt-compensated digital compass. The AVR Studio project is set up for an ATmega328P microcontroller, but it will work on other Orangutans with simple changes to the project configuration. This code can be trivially modified to work with the very similar and newer LSM303DLM 3D compass and accelerometer carrier by swapping the magnetometer Y and Z registers.
