There's also the Atari Robokit, software and hardware to link an Atari ST to
the Lego Technic robot set. The Lego robot set is available separately, and
includes some bits of Lego which it is otherwise difficult to get: touch
switches, solenoids and the like.

The software supplied is a programming language with a graphical (icon and
picture) front end. You could probably interface Atari DR Logo to the Atari
Robokit; I'll make a quick feasibility study if you want. :-)
