Tank

[Guest slickandy]

Sorry, I know it's a bit off topic, but I thought it was quite cool. And he's using an OSF to run his tank!

Since the main webpage is now 509, direct link to video demo of the tank: http://youtu.be/PqfHebVifzc

That is cool.

I hope he does manage to get it to stream video to control it from another room, that would be quite awesome.

Thank you for sharing.

Very cool! Now if he could hook up the GPS, google maps/directions, the camera and a collision detector he'd really be onto something

Excellent already!

Ha ha, glad you guys like it. Seems that it's been featured on a few other forums as well, so the guy's website has gone 509 - a bit of a shame, because it shows you how he built it. From what I remember, it started life as an RC tank with BB firing turret. He had to remove the turret to fit the microcontroller board (IOIO USB for Android), some other electronics and, of course, the San Fran.

So you can see it all in action, I've posted the youtube link of the guy testing the tank. In my original post.
