Schematics / demo video here: http://www.pocketmagic.net/?p=1398
Besides ultrasonic sensors, the robot is about to be equiped with a homemade geiger counter sensor to detect “exotic” environment parameters
like the dangerous ionising radiation. There are quite a few possibilities since the robot has an ATmega microcontroller that can easily
support additional sensors.
The data is send back to the Android device, via bluetooth.
