This is just a small autonomous robot I built as a present to my mother. It uses two sharp infrared sensors on the corners of the robot to avoid the walls. It runs off a Basic Stamp 1, with a very simple algorithm.
If you would like to learn more, don’t hesitate to ask. Here is a video of my robot in action.
December 2008 update:
since I started building robots my sister has wanted a little robot to clean up after her cats. So I bolted on a scoop, an SX-28, and an IR receiver so it can be driven around using a TV remote.
