A New Contender!
As I mentioned back in this entry, I don’t think the further development of the ToyBrain controller is useful. The main use case is amply solved by the Pololu Baby Orangutan. However, there is a project that I want something similar for, where the Baby Orangutan won’t work.
The idea behind the project is to make cheap swarm robots out of small robot toys, using something like the ToyBrain or Baby Oranguntan, but with wireless. The Moteino has wireless, but no motor drivers. The Baby Orangutan has motor drivers, but no wireless. The solution, then, appears to be to make a motor driver shield for the Moteino or a wireless shield for the Baby Orangutan. Of the two, I’m more inclined to do the motor shield for the Moteino, but I haven’t done any really analysis.
