How about a Robo-portable?

Post by Lupin the 3rd » Thu May 05, 2005 3:50 pm

It would be cool to be able to make our portables into a robot like done with the GBA on this site! I'd make mine serve me Martinis. I'd also build a portable army so I could take over the world!

Used them in an engineering class. I love developing robots. I made my own SHRIMP. <---If you know what that is, you rock. If not, look it up. All caps "SHRIMP".

I didn't know anyone had robot vacuum cleaners, I'd seen a robot lawnmower in a magazine though.

Nah mine's not a dyson not sure what it is but it vaccums and also brushes the floor to get the dirt from deep down up to the surface,

it has a few cool features like going around the edge of the room and avoiding things (it hits the object where the front pushes in and it moves away from that object)

it also has a sensor so when it vaccums neer the stairs it stops just before it goes over the stairs and reverses.

it does random spiral and edge but you just hit the size of the room (s m l) then it does it job then when done you hook it up to recharge.

It also wipes the floor 2 :)
