Hey guys,
I'm in my final year of a double degree in Robotics/Computer Science. In Australia we are required to complete a 'Final Year Project'.
So my university has give our group (7 students) the funding to purchase a Bioloid Expert Kit. It looks incredible!
http://www.robotis.com/zbxe/bioloid_en (http://www.robotis.com/zbxe/bioloid_en)
They are expecting us to do amazing things with it.
I was hoping to get some serious ideas about what is feasible to get this robot doing within the time frame.
Although its a final year project the year really turns into about 9 months max considering when the year starts and ends.
So far the list of objectives we have is:
walk autonomously
walk via user joystick control
object detection and tracking (we want to chase a ball)
object avoidance by vision
Are there any cool user interactive things you guys can think of that you would like to see this robot do?
We need to present this thing at our University open day so some gimmicky tricks aren't necessarily a bad thing...
Andrew.

Take a look at www.mech-warfare.com (http://).

Wow I would really like to see someone mod a bioloid into a mech style robot, and maybe get two of them and rig up a laser tag style setup between the two.

Thanks for the suggestion. Anything else guys?

Klims, I have access to a couple of Bioloids - We dont have them tag teamed yet, but it is something im looking to do early next year ^_^
