zanthessGot his battery pack glued onto the back, Thing is, I didn't note which way to put it, so now it's REALLY difficult to attach and detach the power supply. Bleh.
So next best thing: I added a switch!
It's pretty nifty looking now. I even soldered on the head motor and the ultrasonic sensor to the circuit. I set up some code and debugged it so that what the ultrasonic sensor picked up, it sent back to my laptop. And what do you know, it works!
No pictures tonight, sorry. It all looks pretty much the same, save for a blinky red light on the sensor.
I'm hoping to set up a simple object avoidance program in the next few days, and will definitely post video about it.
P.S. I'm wondering if anyone reads all this stuff I post, I haven't gotten any comments in a while :(
Please, think of all those lonely comments needing a place to live...
