What does it do?

Drives around and finds something to drum on, while avoiding walls.

After seeing so many great drumming robots on LMR, I figured it was time for me to build one of my very own. I have never built a robot, or done anything quite like this, so this will be a learning process. I bought an Arduino a month or so back after reading about it constantly in my favorite magazine, MAKE. With a little help from TheCowGod, who also used the Arduino in his drumming robot, I have put together the start of PhilBot.
