Description
The Edison spare skid 20 pack contains 20 individual orange skids for use with Edison robots. The spare skids are compatible with all versions of the Edison robot, including Edison V3.
NOTE: all Edison robots are shipped with an included skid, located on the underside of the robot near the line tracking sensor. There are also 2 spare skids located in the Edison box packaging.
The Edison spare skid 20 pack is designed to replace lost skids.
What is a skid?
Every Edison robot comes with a removable skid already in the robot. Previous versions of the skid were clear, whilst these are orange. Both work in the same manner. This skid is the little bump located on the underside of the robot near the line tracking sensor.
The skid helps keep the front of Edison up off the surface below the robot. This is especially important to enable Edison to use the line tracking sensor correctly in order to read barcodes, follow lines and run other types of programs.
You can remove the skid from your robot by pulling the skid out from Edison’s orange chassis. In general, this is only necessary when you are doing build and engineering projects with Edison, including the EdCreate EdBuilds.
