What type of robots have you developed? I haven't built anything myself, but I am interested in it and hope to build next term. I am currently working for a company that specializes in autonomous robotics and artificial intelligence. I'd be interested to hear what kind of projects you have done. Have you used prebuilt microprocessor/controller circuits or do you make your own circuit? i.e. do you buy a single board computer or do you make them?
