    basicly this bug is modeled after the $10 hexbug anyone who has seen one will agree it looks alot like it but notice this one is programable,packed with loads of sensors,touch switsch's oh and how about the upgrade to those whiskers or working mandable I also put a mercury tilt switch in there so the bot knows when it has been picked up and will stop trying to walk ,and it responds to sound aswell as light and emits sound, Im adding a pcf8574-p wich is a I2C interface to allow field program changes aswell as downloading any data gathered in the field to an ti86 calculator "soon as its prg code is done, also I plan to add a second deck &bs2 board to handel a second articulate gripper "scorpion tail" ,solar chargeing for continuous opperation,maybe even a cam,I am haveing tons of fun and spent verry little so far. I am guessing however that I will soon want to start a new robot project so I will offer it on ebay with a compleate ready to run price aswell as a stripped chasis only price,here is my offering any input is appreciated aswell as criticizem because that will push me to try harder.
    I am now working on a chasis plan/bluprint this one was alot of trial and error -total about 20hours to completion.
