I ran out<br \/>\nof space in the Nano for anything other than input\/output so all the control is done from a remote PC via python over<br \/>\nbluetooth\/serial. I also made a wiimote script to control him manually. His brains is just basic obstacle avoidance right<br \/>\nnow, still trying to see how much nav\/odom info I can derive from a 6DOF sensor. Dead reckoning would result in massive<br \/>\nerror accumulation, so for right now it just tells him orientation.<br \/>\nAnyway I&#8217;m pretty happy with how he&#8217;s turned out so far and he&#8217;s been a lot of fun.
