Hello friends,
Do you have any idea about to make a robot with Pi. I want to build a simple robot with some basic intelligence. You have any reference pls share...
Thanks in advance..

having designed and built many robots in the past (and have a current build on the go as well), I find that it`s best to off load as many tasks as possible to smaller controllers, leaving your main control unit free to focus purely on data processing and task delegation.
so the mobility for instance will be a complete module in it`s own right, memory mapped and served with Address and Data, the same for an arm unit and sensor array.
doing it this way would also allow you to build a Vitual robot in the Pis memory (or any other processing unit), then it`s simply a matter of data manipulation of these memory/register areas.
we operate in a similar way ourselves, you don`t Consciously tell your heart to beat or your lungs to breathe, or move your hand if you touch your soldering iron by accident 
this method can lead to interesting emergent behavior that frequently ressembles Inteligence of sorts.
hope that helps a little.
