[Sugar-devel] Interesting USB-pluggable robots, controller boards, and sensors

[forster at ozonline.com.au]

Turtle Art Arduino, at least when I last ran it, requires Firmata software in the Arduino. So the Arduino is acting as a dumb I/O expansion board and is not being programmed as an autonomous robot. The user is programming in TurtleArt. I used the Arduino Duemilanove but I don't think the version matters much.
