This is a big day - the GraffitiBot made its maiden voyage!
This was just the first attempt at programming an autonomous route that would test the steering and the main drive.
It is literally a dry run, there are no pumps or even reservoir on board.
I could spend some time to make it look more impressive and get some better camera angles, but I need to start working on the hydraulics - the nozzles need a lot of work, not to mention the software.
Getting this far has taken a lot of work, but see it run is what is all about.
