Hi, First Post

I've just created this blog to record my progress with robot building.

Many years ago (~30) electronics was an interest of mine and throughout my working career I have done a lot of simple programming. The concept of unmanned vehicles has interested me over the past 5 years or so and because of this I have a vague idea of an sentry robot that follows a predefined patrol path and when it identifies an anomaly will alert an operator to take tele command of the vehicle.

This involves a lot of learning on my part, but that's the whole point! I envisage making many small robots along the way to become familiar with the implementation of various technologies and ideas. It's the journey and not the destination that's the fun part.
