This is not autonomous it is a remote mobile webcam that can be operated over the internet using wireless for tele conference. I used google talk so I could talk to my dog from work :)

nylon cutting board
2 gear head motors
1 caster
1 rc car speed controller
1 eeepc with ubuntu installed via flash drive
1 servo controller http://www.pololu.com/catalog/product/1350
1 rc car nicad battery
2 rubber bouncing balls for wheels
2 servos
1 webcam

not sure of cost since this is stuff i had laying around except for te servo controller
I X forwarded the the gui server controller for remote control and then just called the laptop with google talk no real code just a lazy hack :)
