A Roomba that doesn't vacuum
I am the excitedly proud new owner of a iRobot Create, basically a Roomba with the vaccuum parts ripped out and an attachment to let you program it in C or C++. So, first, I've got to go in to my office tomorrow and retrieve my copy of Kernighan & Ritchie. There's also a guide to WinAVR (the robot's development toolset for C/C++ programs) over at SourceForge that seems pretty good. Though - damn - I haven't had to deal with makefiles in forever...
Woooooo! Robots!!!!!!!
