## Zumo 32U4

The Zumo 32U4 robot is a complete, versatile robot controlled by an Arduino-compatible ATmega32U4
microcontroller. When assembled, the low-profile tracked robot measures less than 10 cm on each side, making
it suitable for Mini-Sumo competitions. <br/>
At the heart of the Zumo 32U4 is an integrated ATmega32U4 AVR microcontroller from Atmel, along with dual
H-bridge drivers that power the robot’s motors. The robot also features a variety of sensors, including quadrature
encoders and inertial sensors (accelerometer and gyro) on the main board, along with reflectance and proximity
sensors on the front sensor array. On-board pushbuttons offer a convenient interface for user input, and an LCD,
buzzer, and indicator LEDs allow the robot to provide feedback. <br/>
