  Here's my robot based on the arduino diecimila. It's built from two servos modified for continuous rotation, one standard servo and a sharp ir range finder. The body of the robot is a rechargable battery from black and decker called "pocket power". The wheels and "caster" are parts from capcella. The whole thing is assembled with hot glue.
  
  basic function
  
  The robot sweeps the ir range finder 130 degrees and records the closest object. Objects closer than 10 inches will cause the robot to take action. If this object is more than 45 degrees to the right or left it makes a small correction away from the object. If the object is within the center 90 degrees, it stops, looks left and right, finds the clearest direction and turns about 90 degrees to that direction.
