The parts for the labs associated with the robotic book are on the TI web site, see Robot Systems Learning Kit
Volume 1 - Kit Overview
You will need to purchase the MSP-EXP432P401R board from Texas Instruments and a set of electronic components. The cost for these parts is about $60 US plus shipping. The kit comprises a microcontroller board, plus some extra electronics. These extra electronics include a protoboard, six LEDs, four switches, an audio jack, a slide pot, resistors, and some 22 or 24 gauge solid wire. For the slide pot any resistance from 10k to 50k is OK. In addition, it doesn't matter how long the slide pot is, any slide distance from 10 to 60mm will be fine. There are two options for the LCD graphics display, the low-cost Nokia 5110 or the color ST7735 LCD.
