    Sure, but the real question is how much do you want to load up the one microprocessor that it has?

    If you plan to use radio communications to forward data, you might as well have a second microprocessor handle the data full time and maybe have the two processors exchange some basic navigation functions.

    The problem lies in the fact that the Toddler doesn't do well at pausing in mid-stride to run another sub-routine.· With wheels, this kind of problem is less noticible [noparse][[/noparse]the machine doesn't fall over].
