hello! im new to this forum and to robotics, so plz give me simple answers, because my knowledge is very low
. my question is, whats a micro controller? is it where the batteries, motors,etc. are going to be atached (like the PC´s motherboard) or is it just a chip you put on the robot-motherboard that is incharge of the programable stuff? and why are all microcontrollers PIC something?whats the meaning of it? and could u advice me, plz, a good micr controller (or robot-motherboard) that would be nice and easy to start, but could have more stuff like sensors, etc. also, one more question to the many before, whats the diference between a servo motor and a DC motor? oh well, thanks a lot, and hope this hasnt got any error like wrong place, stupid questions, etc :S. bye, and robotic cheers!
P.S- my only experience in this is in remote controlled cars and stuff, also basic, but atleast ive built one so i know how it works
