I've built an obstacle avoiding robot...  With no CPU!  The brains of this baby
is the 9v battery box.  I call it the Rock Stupid Rover.  All it needs is a few
BURPs for decoration.

Build it yourself and try all three programs!

Ben this is really COOL!. For a guy that gave up on pbForth and moved on to
legOS for the extra flexibility, it's almost as if you were stuck somewhere
without a computer and couldn't help but tinker... :-)

The layout of the text and photos make for a really interesting web page, and
as everyone knows, it's content, not flashy graphics that makes a page
useful, and this is a useful page!

Great work!

Cheers,
