Marvin is a lot faster than Jasper. My wife named him. Right now he can just avoid objects with his SRF05 and is able to be controlled with a radio remote.

It is connected to the analog pins on the Picaxe and controlled programaticly. The video shows him in both modes. Below are some additional pictures. ...
