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.

Convert a vintage 1984 Radio Shack Robie into a Roomba-mounted retro cleaning robot with ez-b, camera, and custom arms.
I removed the battery box and epoxied in the battery door but this time I didn't dremel out the little ridges in the plastic andbi left a 1/4" lip around the door from where I cut the battery box away. I did these things to make the frame much more rigid.
Ok I spent a couple hours playing with shammy ideas. It appears the thinnest option a plain sponge will work the best. Its funny how some if the best solutions are low tech. shrug
Thats true. It's going to be cool to see your crew of bots having the run of the place.
If I get lucky squeegee will have his first movements tommorow. Well less luck and more me buckling down to do it and ignoring distractions.
Josh! Cute fish. What is his/her name?
Can't wait for video! Squeegee is awesome.
The fish. I just call him puffer.
@brett im hoping I can get the hbridge and ezb on tonight.
Sounds like an appropriate name. I used to have one. He was a little bit smaller. He got eaten by a largemouth bass. It killed both of them. I did not expect the large mouth to eat him. Yours is a beautiful one. Your Aquarium is so big, maybe we could all go on a fishing trip one day. We could fish out of your aquarium. ha!ha! It seems to work for Snoopy very well.
In all seriousness. It is a nice aquarium.
