EyeBot
A/Prof Thomas Bräunl,

EyeBot is a controller for mobile robots with wheels, walking robots or flying robots. It consists of a powerful 32-Bit microcontroller board with a graphics display and a digital grayscale or color camera. The camera is directly connected to the robot board (no frame grabber). This allows to write powerful robot control programs without a big and heavy computer system and without having to sacrifice vision - the most important sensor.
