| CANBOT1 is a basic mobile robot. Its motion is provided by two continous rotation hacked FUTABA S148 servo's. The base is made out of 3/4" acyrlic safety glass. The brain is a VERSATECH TIC62 BASIC interpreter microcontroller, and the servos are controlled by a SEETRON Serial Servo Controller. The robot uses infrared for navigation, as well as a simple fuzzy logic system for the infrared detector. The system will also have ultrasonics added to it shortly to allow for a simple radar system and software to make the robot take the best path to a certain point.
