It’s been 3 months since I last posted. Life has conspired to keep be busy with other things including a job change (I now work at 510 Systems, a real-time 3D mobile mapping technology company in Berkeley, CA) and an awesome 3-week vacation trip to the Philippines. Now that things have settled down a bit, I can report some progress I made during the past several weeks.

For the most part, I worked on making my robot controllable by a computer through a standard serial (RS-232) port. I used an Arduino microcontroller to build the serial interface. I built the Arduino kit and wrote code to receive the computer commands and generate the raw serial pulses. More info on this Robosapien V2 project page.
