LARS is a really nice project for several reasons. First, it’s a robot powered by an Arduino with lots of sensors. Second, it’s being build by a father and his son. I can’t think of a better thing to do with your kids than teach them a new skill that can use for the rest of their lives.
We had another test run for LARS. Now that we have the basics down, we plan to start adding to it. The next addition we are going to add is an on-board wireless camera. This will allow LARS to roam around and send the video signal back to our TV.
