Dear sirs,

I have a Technology Club at school and we are interested in building a robot.

I would appreciate your thoughts and advice about getting started.


Thanks!

There are a lot of data out there but you need to know exactly what you want to do, how much money you have to do it and how much time.

There is a great article in the Seattle robotics society: "Standard Technologies of the Seattle Robotics Society"... this should be a good starting point. Some cool stuff to get you motivated:

Building Ebot
Sandwich, an Easy to Build Robot That Follows Lines
Mouse Robots

I hope it gets you started

I highly recomend lego mindstorms http://mindstorms.lego.com/eng/default.asp. The best thing about using Lego is that you can do as much with it as you can imagine without having to fabricate parts.
