Another instance when technology not being used to it’s fullest capacity. The Chumby One, a lackluster, non-portable, social media alarm clock that's housing a 454Mhz ARM processor. It was begging to be used for something else.
Eric Gregori of EMGRobotics has made his Chumby mobile. Using RobotSee, a robotics-specific language he wrote, and a Freescale sensor board along with Freescale servos he was able to get Chumby moving. The Chumby itself has a 454MHz processor, 64MB of ram, 2GB of storage and a USB port which is enough to get it moving. The display shows accelerometer data that’s used to both balance and walk the ChumbyBot. Now run Chumby run!
