I thought I should make a "Start Here" robot, so I did! When I built the control board, I included an EEPROM, IR remote, 2 trimmer pots and wired the motor driver to the PWM outputs so I should have quite a bit of room in terms of code-play. To be honest, I have no idea what I am going to have it do, but again, all options are open with what I included on the board. For now, just a simple slide/spin code to drive around. Pictures:
