It'd be nice if it had some AI.

The AI will come from the programming ultimatly.

Perhaps a camera in the head, hooked up to a
computer, sending messages to the RCXs?

The Super Mech-Bot has a Dual Vision Command set up.

If you wanted it more advanced, you
could have multiple cameras, plus microphones, a speaker, and maybe more
sensors (temperature/pressure sensors in fingers?)

The Super Mech-Bot has touch sensors in the hands.

Whats nice about Vision Command is the ability to trigger sound events that
you can record and customize. :)

These funtions were assigned to the Super Mech-Bot because its scale is more
friendly to this kind of funtionality.

Jama was and is an exersize in making use of a bunch of Blue Technic I had
from the Mantis as well as tring to make a Robot one step or scale dowm from
the Super Mech-Bot.

Learning to make certain aspects of its design before scaling those ideas up.
ie, Spine Bending, Leg designs, 6 legs or 2 only.

The Jamocklaquat is a like a test bed to understand how to control Humanoid
Robotic Movements with Lego Mindstorms. The fact that the model has an
unussual name is ment to imply that we as people are just bearly starting to
understand this technology. Hence the name is unknown to us and is a mystery.
