Thanks to everyone for helping me get up and going! I've learned how to connect hardware, download projects and learning ez scripting. I have never been one to reinvent the wheel so here goes....
I am looking to build a robot that will steer using polar coordinates. Is there an easy way to do this?

I have been working on something like this. So far I have the arm so it will scan the area around it and when it see's a red object, it stops, picks up the object and hands it to me. I have not played with "object" recognition yet but that's next. I also want to play with QR codes on objects. With QR codes it should be possible for the robot to identify an object and do something specific with it (maybe). Anyway, here's the code I/we have come up with so far. If anyone has any comments on how to improve it, I am all ears.
QR codes are an interesting idea / but the tool has to be lying QR up - with RFID that would not be an issue / the trick would be to scan the floor in a pattern until an RFID is detected, query the DB for any pick up information an darling space and the pick up and park and then return to continue the search...
I was hoping for some more feedback but I guess I will close this thread / study someone and them ask again...
