I truly haven't done anything on ScaredyBot for almost a
month - my subsumption architecture was a bit too
complicated - still is, but I'm working on it. The funny
(or sad) thing is, that I didn't take the step back and
try to trade off some of the
complexity/functionality/purity in a pragmatic manner.
Basically, I was trying to go for generality that would
(in theory) support any future requirements. Now
that's just silly, especially considering this is only my
second robot. So I'm now going to shed some of the Brooks
subsumption ideals and just focus on making it work
reliably, with extensiblility to support the likely future
growth.
Ah, embedded ISR debugging is so much fun, because it's just so darn easy and not at all time consuming.
