I am interested in what people are building: Small 'bots, big
'bots, autonomous or R/C?
I have three "brains" that I work with - LEGO MindStorms, Board
of Education (BOE) and the AVR Robot Controller (A.R.C.)
For chassis I have too many LEGOs to count, a lynxmotion body and a
couple of custom bodies I've built out of 3mm Suntra. The Suntra is
REALLY easy to work in - you can score it with a hobby knife and snap
it.
I recently competed at PAReX, the Phoenix Area Robot Experimenters,
annual competition. There were 3 events - Line following, Sumo and
Maze Solving. I competed in Line Following and took third. The second
place winner and I were VERY close in capabilities. His bot had more
sensors (QRD1114) than mine, which resulted in less swerving around the
line during the straight-aways.
So.. Tell me - What are you working on?
