What is it?

It's a USB radio receiver base for all our radio-enabled projects. It's used to get data from devices, and to upload new firmware to them. As of now, the only device we sell on Tindie for this base is uECG, although we plan to add oximeter soon, and more devices in 2021.

It also can be used as a transceiver unit for most 2.4GHz projects - like an old good nRF24 - although that would require base firmware programming (all code is open source and available at our github, but it's not well commented so if you are going to develop this part - we advise you to discuss it with us. No, really - it has a lot powerful stuff under the hood, and can be actually used very easily, but looks like a complete mess and figuring it out yourself may be tricky).

Why did you make it?

We needed some way to transfer data to/from PC. So that's what we did - radio chip + USB-UART interface + some LEDs :)

What makes it special?

It's a basic unit for any 2.4 GHz radio projects, such devices should have been available in hundreds of variants - but, well, it wasn't the case :) So we made one - as always, open hardware, open source. At some point we'll even make it Arduino-compatible - but not now.

Ultimate Robotics Shipping Policy:

We will normally ship your order within 3 days.

Shipping methods:

Ukrposhta (10-45 days) Standard international air mail. The delivery has been speeding up (there was a lot of long delays during worst months of pandemic). Average real time of shipping (according to post office data for July): 7-20 days for Europe and the US, So if you are from Europe or US - it's a good option, most other countries take longer (mostly relative to distance).
EMS (7-10 days) EMS is shipped by air and is an express version of regular Ukrposhta air mail. It takes priority over other postal services (it's processed faster). Basically it's a balance between cost and speed.

Average real time of shipping (according to post office data for July): 5-10 days for most of the Europe, North America (US, Canada) and East Asia (South Korea, Philippines, Hong Kong and some others). Other countries may or may not take longer.

Italy, Ireland, Belgium, Finland, Serbia, Germany, Chile, Saudi Arabia - 7-14 days

Australia, New Zealand, China - 8-20 days

Packaging: We ship stuff safely packed - uECGs go into a box fixed with cardboard inserts and filled with crinkled paper; this box we then put into an external shipping box made from corrugated cardboard, which we then wrap in cling film. End dimensions of package is around 20015090 mm for single uECG orders.
