I did something similar so my 4yr old daughter could run a robot around on
the floor and have it pick up and move lego bricks. I created an Excel
spreadsheet that looked like the floorplan of the room. She could make the
robot follow a path by typing numbers into cells on the sheet (the cell
containing the number one was the first location to go to, then go to the
cell containing two, etc...). I made the cells square so it looked like a
grid. After she entered the path she pushed a button to execute. The robot
would then wander around following a trajectory that looked like that on the
spreadsheet (more or less).
Navagation was all done by dead reconning. I am currently trying to use
Vision Command to give me some location feedback. I will share my results
if it works out.
