Hi everyone. I'm a complete newbie who can't wait to get started messing around with electronics, and after that robotics. But since I can't get started right now (too much schoolwork), my mind has been just full of wild ideas!
So to help out my imagination, I thought I'd create a thread where people can post projects that they're currently working on, web pages, pictures, details, etc.
So share your stuff, let's see what cool things everyone is working on!

You've got it good, I live in Green Bay, WI where nothing like that exists. I don't even know another robot experimenter in the area.

Well, you've got to start somewhere. And I find it's best to just
*find* the time. I have a full-time job, I write, and I am working on a Java behavioral programming library (open source).
Building your first robot *seems* like a big thing, but once you've done that building the next ones aren't that bad. If you like Java, I'd suggest one of James Caska's uVM chips (a PIC that you compile Java to --

If you prefer a more BASIC mindset, then you can get one of Kronos Robotics Dios (or Athena) chips.

Each of these has enough libraries available to read sensors and control motors, and they cost less than $20 with free compilers.
If you don't know much about mechanics, try Budget Robotics

I *love* Gordon's bases.
I don't sell anything, but I'm working on an open-source Java robotics framework. And I build a few robots.
