here is a small project, that I made with my friend ( Stefan )
if you are a real robot builder , you have alrady got all the stuff you´ll need
turn off your speaker if you get tired of the music ( Daft Punk - Around the World )
and now with upgrade to get a better grip = perfect turn then hitting a wall
it will avoid walls using two sensors
Actuators / output devices: 2 motors
Control method: turn it on
CPU: none
Operating system: none
Power source: 2 AA batteries
Programming language: none
Sensors / input devices: home-made bumper switch
Target environment: indoor flat surfaces

Waa-Waa-Waa-huh? Why isn’t Waa-Waa-Waa-huh? Why isn’t your LED frying I thought Leds need resistors?!?!?
sometimes but only if the sometimes but only if the LED gets more then 3 volt = 2 batteries = 1,5 + 1,5 = 3 volt

Great quick project! Did it
Great quick project! Did it actually touch a wall in the video, it looks like the right wheel has slightly more traction than the left and it likes to do brodies. Impressive video presentation, although I’m partial to TheCowGod’s old show tunes for a sound track. What software did you use for the video editing etc.?

Brilliant!Nice
Brilliant!Nice invention!
More video / a new video of it actually going, perhaps filmed from a lower point of view would be ace!! Also more pictures, it’s great!
Great! But it’s “sure” not “Shure”…

you said Shure again when you said Shure again when its meant to be Sure!!! but any ways good vids
wow smart
very simple and very smart when you were first going to turn it on i thought this better be good but it took off like a speeding bullet love the simplisity i just love it i think i will go to the shop and buy 2 motors just to make this i love it
