Onboard sensory includes: 2 Sharp IR sensors (for wall following and obstacle detection), an SRF-05 sonar sensor and AVRcam. The sonar and camera are mounted in a 2-axis head. He also has quadrature encoders on each wheel, I currently have code implemented for closed loop turns and rolling forward a set distance, but have yet to do continuous speed control. Browse:

Very nicely put together! You have me wondering what I might be able to do with a few AVRs now... I've been tinkering using PICs/dsPICs, and there are some PICs with Ethernet or USB, but I have not actually applied any of these to robotics (yet).
