Free tables.	More free tables.	Even more of the free tables.	Bill Arden brought Table Runner kits.
A view of a prototype and an actual clear one.	A Table Runner going around and around.	Kenneth Kern is making this robot.	Front view.
You can see the frame is made of two plastic project boxes. It has a pan/tilt head on top.	You can see that it uses gell cell batteries and has a controller on top.	This is the Parallax controller board.	There is a Basic Stamp controller on the front. It looks like it might be used as a servo position controller.
This board is also on the front. Looks like transistor drivers.	There is a relay board in the middle somewhere. Probably to run the motors.	The pan/tilt head has some IR illumination and possibly an IR detector. There may be other sensors there that I can't see.	Someone is making this robot.
It has a controller on top. I think this was an Atmel processor.	The controller and the user interface.	It uses Solarbotics motors and wheels. There is also a ball caster in the back.	Top view.
It has photo detectors on the front for line following. The pots adjust the sensitivity of the detectors.	Close up of the line detector board.
