However it has the potential to become more with addition of sensors and some smart software. So maybe I should refer to it as "protorobot" instead. My primary objective was to demonstrate DSerial2 interface card. Of course, it's not only for robotics, but that kind of application gets more attention. :) Also, I am aware that telerobotics similar to this has been done before. But I am pretty fond of my control interface which actually took longer to build than the "robot" itself. Thank you for your attention, I like smart blog entries like yours.
