OSR is a major work in progress, It is controlled by the arduino Mega, OSR will has bluetooth capability, so i can control it from my verizon droid eris(android phone), it has an RFID reader and a ping)) rangefinder, and i am still testing, debugging, and adding code.
Nice to see your robot in action. Good progress, keep it up!
Try adding a roller or caster wheel at the back to avoid tipping. If it will operate mostly on hard surfaces, something like the one pictured below from DAGU might work:
I never thought of the landmark think like that. I use similar design with my bots. Nothing lake a big breadboard for easy expermentation. I was thinking of using IR beacons but that would use batterys. Parallax now has an inexpensive color sensor out now. Mabe in the future I may play with that idea.
ok, i am adding bluetooth ok, i am adding bluetooth soon which means that it can communicate with my droid eris(smartphone) then i could take advantage of it’s digital compass, acelerometer, 3g internet, camera, text to speech, etc…
