''Shown L-R, the Arduino Mega, the shield PCB which plugs into the Arduino Mega, the Usb4Butia which replaces both boards in later versions of the Butia''
To install the software which runs on Usb4Butia, there is an activity [http://activities.sugarlabs.org/es-ES/sugar/addon/4621 ButiaFirmware] Activity which runs on a XO.
The robot's controlling program runs on the XO laptop, typically TurtleBots, the pallette of blocks is shown below. Control by programs in [http://www.fing.edu.uy/inco/proyectos/butia/mediawiki/index.php/Butialo Lua] or [http://www.fing.edu.uy/inco/proyectos/butia/mediawiki/index.php/Python Python] are also possible.
