Current projects

My current projects since Leo is almost physically complete are building up 4 arduino clones with a few personal additions and a few things like dual H-bridges with opto-couplers, IR sensor board(yes, I know you can buy sharp sensors ready to plug in to the MCU).   I got the magnets for the magnetic encoders, just have to find some bipolar hall effect sensors such as the 1302, which is found in the tachometer gear of most cars.  Found some on Ebay.com, but was hoping to support the local economy first before the world economy.

Leo is almost physically complete. Just need to wire up the IR sensors and get the hall effect sensors. Once those are installed the body part is done. After that I will switch out his motors for 6v ones and maybe add a head with some sensors on it.
