Pi Robot: What Do You Think?

dexterindustries

We prototyped up a Raspberry Pi Robot we're thinking about working on.  What do you think?

 

What do you think a Pi Robot absolutely needs?  We were thinking we need to add encoders, and maybe line-following sensors.  Anything else?

  • Very cool.  I'm guessing you've already got a range sensor.  How about voice sensor.  Maybe not in the sense of responding to a command (which would be awsome) but just moving towards a call.  Alternately, directing by way of a laser or flashlight, like I might do with a cat :-).  For an really adventurous robot, let it go towards the dark.  Got infra-red? let it take infrared photos in a dark area.
