Giving tours around the hackspace takes time and effort. So the obvious solution is to build a robot to do it. Here are the details and build log.

Start 27/11/13 Basic base is the blue robot from Real Robots Magazine. I got this from a car boot sale and, at the first Arduino 101 day I fixed my arduino base to the robot.

The Arduino is a Duemilanova with an ATMega328. I might updrage to an Uno if needed.

The motor control unit has been left in to power the motors.

An audio module MOD-1007 from Embedded Adventures has been added for the tour audio.
