I received in the mail yesterday a booklet that mentioned the WowWee product Rovio. They have done what I am planning. They have a BOT which accepts external commends (via WIFI) and also runs autonomously. Interesting.... Not as sexy as my idea (IMHO)

I'm little by little making a schematic using ORCAD's CAPTURE product.

I am working on my idea not in complete electronic detail. My first picture will include all significant pieces, all connectors, all multi-conductor wires and my best guess as to which piece goes on which prototype board.

This will give me enough of a concept to take to my local RC Cars establishment and to Do It Yourself Electronics. After that the transistors', resistors', capacitors' batteries' and PIC pin selection details will be created.

Thanks for your continued interst.
