M.A.R.S - 01 (My Autonomous Robot Series)
I've played around a bit with picaxe for about a year, this is the most ambitious project i've ever taken on and man did I have fun.......and lost a little hair too. but it was worth it. The brains- Picaxe 18A, L293d for the motors and SRF005 for eyes. The SRF005 was just stuck on the servo with blue tack.
The chassis i made at work on our Denford micro router out of some scrap acrylic.
My thanks goes out to all LMR members, you're a wonderful resource especially when you stuck.
