I alredy had thought on this as the ultimate project for my CyberMaster (because the strong radio link to the PC).
I would put the "brain" in the PC and make the unit wander in the house as if it was an extension to the brain (like the muscles are to a real brain).
Whoever, I never came up with a real good objective for the brain to accomplish...

Try putting some bricks together using your knuckles - that is with pressure feedback, now try doing it in a dark room :) It's a cute idea but I think you'd have *real* trouble with anything smaller than 2x2 bricks, or is that what you meant?
