Thank you for the great app
Do you have any plans to auto-charge your C2Bot. I'm building a similar rover mainly for watchdog in the house and want rover to go to docking station and re-charge itself. I would like to hear your ideas on this feature.
Very good informative site, thank you for sharing all these.
I'm loving your website. Thanks for putting it together!
Your cousin put me in touch with you; I'm working on a neat project that I'm hoping you might collaborate on.
I'm fascinated that this generation will see the colonization of Mars. I'm doing an expo that will travel to schools and burning Man festival to spread the word-and the thoughts that will make this move into space more ethical.
The Burning Man version, at http://Facebook.com/BurnOnMars will be the adult-ed version. A made-for-kids version will travel to schools around the lower mainland.
-I'm making some robotics to make it come alive but I'm not sure I can get the major project, a telepresence robot to bring people to Burning Man, up in time.
- happy to include any projects you might think would be useful
Looking forward to connecting!
