Telepresence Bot

6/12/2016 

I need to get around to creating a project page for this guy, but as of right now the bot is capable of being driven around remotely and here are some videos of testing it from a few weeks ago.

Everyday that I would come back to work on this project I would start off with weird issues, mostly completely unexplainable.. Turns out it was my project cats, helping out over night. They wouldn't actually pull the wires out of the breadboard but they tug on them enough to disconnect the pins from the traces and so it would appear as if the connections were intact. So I'm in the process now of making an enclosure, and after that the plan is to wire up some ultrasonic ping sensors for collision detection (trying to avoid denting the wall too much).
