  • Page 11 Optional Controller The Scamper robot kit uses the ComMotion PCB as a "stand alone" controller running demonstration software however the ComMotion PCB can also be used as an I²C motor control shield. The advantage of I²C control is that almost all of your IO pins (except A4 and A5) are free for use with other shields, sensors or circuits.
