Arduino
We use Arduino Micro board either to manage sensors and to implement low level control:
- Infrared proximity sensor Sharp D120 (Bildr Tutorial )
- Color light sensor (Bildr tutorial)
O-Droid
Single board computer used to implement intelligence, image processing and strategy. More information about here. Out instance is running ArchLinux ARM
Useful links
- LibWiimote, a simple C-library that provides API for communicating with Nintendo Wiimote via bluetooth (http://libwiimote.sourceforge.net/)
- OpenCV, C++ optimezed library for image processing. More information about here
