Gabriel, please do keep working on this!  It's exactly the sort of thing I've
been looking for for years.  I get frustrated with the high cost and hard limits

space on my site, if you'd like, perhaps we can consider hosting your project

Danny & all, This was a prototype that I have built with regular parts. If there will be demand, I will make and order PCBs. The total cost of the parts is around $30. Add $10 for labor (and that is verry modest) and you'll get the price. The size (...) (19 years ago, 1-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics)
