This is a simple project that hopefully I wont over complicate. Since he Squeegee needs to get as close to furniture and the toilet and bathtub as possible this my be a challenge. After all we spend most our time trying to get our robots to avoid the objects in the room. Im giving new life to a radioshack robie jr rc controlled robot.

Mcsdaver's Android Project Jen
I just got my second EZ-B in the mail today. Now I am working on my android Jen. I am using parts from an Elvis alive...
@brett yea I did nothing but make the dome worse trying to polish it so I will need to use the other robie jr dome...
What happened? Did it frost it entirely? Save that dome though! You never know if you might need it. Paint it over for something else.
Yea its frosted and I buff it and polish it and it stays cloudy. I must have spent 4 hours buffing it and then came home and tried using the polishing wheel for the dremel and that was worse than hand buffing it. Your right though ill just paint that bad boy later I believe. I planned on doing two mop robots so I guess the next one just wont have a clear dome. No big deal.
Paint on the inner surface and have random placed flashing leds inside against it. Might work.
Mua ha ha . Squeegee number two.... or whatever I call the second one sounds like he will have a painted dome.
Ok work continues , I robbed the caster off the other robie because its heavier duty than my other casters I have on hand. I cut it out in a square to make it easier to splice into place on squeegee. I placed the caster in the rear where most the weight is due to the battery and water tank. I imagine the front will float along with little actual load.
Remounted the h bridge..YouTube video of squeegee ultrasonic radar movement test. This is a tiny servo that brett sent me..

Thanks for the shout out - I'm glad that little servo works for you. He is really coming along now. What color are you going to paint him?
