		<description><![CDATA[For the robot project I am using a MotorHawk board, which essentially provides motor control over USB. Unfortunately the code that comes with it isn&#8217;t that great. I knew it was Windows only from the start, but when I had a closer look, it comes with a DLL, and sample applications in managed VB and [...]]]></description>

Yesterday I got it up and running under Ubuntu, and after that I got a very simple &#8220;nearest object&#8221; algorithm running on it. Check out the videos below! Also &#8211; the code.

		<description><![CDATA[Kinect is Microsoft&#8217;s new add-on for the Xbox 360, coming out on November 10th. It is a &#8220;controllerless controller&#8221; &#8211; or a &#8220;motion controller&#8221;, depending on how you want to look at it. It is in a similar vein to the Nintendo Wii&#8217;s controller or the Playstation Move, but with an extra &#8211; and awesome [...]]]></description>
