The usb robot arm comes with Windows software only.

The robot arm needs the USB interface which can be purchased separately if it was not already included. The robot arm is also available through other retailers, often called an Education Robot Arm or similar, although they sometimes come with a handheld remote control rather than the USB interface. The robot arm used for testing is the Maplin robot arm, but I believe it should also work with the Cebek ModelC-6985 available from CPC Farnell. This is designed for use with the Raspberry Pi running Linux, but should work with any Linux computer. G-Robot Arm is a GUI application to control the cebekit Robot Arm.
