Introduction¶
Brian brick is compatible with older bricks from the world‑famous manufacturer that are no longer produced and are not currently supported. It is a custom project developed by Voltavian, funded by the Czech Technical University and by BTL Medical Development a.s., the main partner of the Robosoutěž competition, and is intended primarily for Robosoutěž — a competition of robots built from LEGO®.

Brian brick is the foundation of your robotics project. You can write your own programs that will control your robot. Connect various external components, such as sensors or motors, and the program will be able to communicate with them.
Brian and programs can be used to:
connect and use up to four sensors (EV3, NXT, Brian)
connect and use up to four motors (EV3, NXT) or other motors (currently in development)
connect multiple Brians together, via sensor or motor ports [
]play sounds, directly or through an external speaker/headphones [
]make custom the user interfaces via display [
], buttons and their color LEDsconnect to a computer of phone via WiFi [
