Edited my name out from the image and rehosted it. I'm half-tempted to try something with it but the other half says it be a whole big production that I'm too lazy to go through with. |

I once again recommend simply buying a Roomba, as they do everything you desire your robot to do. |

He lives a block up the street from me and sent me a text one night saying "You guys (me and my roomate) need to come over in an hour, I have something awesome to show you!" We had no idea it was a robot. I think he has some Youtube videos of his SPIDEE 1 too |

Not sure. Although he is making them to be able to build things, including replicating themselves. |
