Just playing around with my Cygnal 8051 development kit. This is a very basic robot, 2 wheels, and some reflective IR sensors, configured for line following And maze navigation. As it turned out, I like this new Cygnal part very much; I will most likely be using it on future robots. I also like the idea of using a PDA as the master controller; this makes it very easy to write software for it on the fly.
