 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-image field-field-primary-image&quot;&gt;

      &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;Follows a line&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is my very first line following robot that is built around ATMEGA8. Construction and circuit are quite simple. Such a name- GOOFY is given because robot movements are somewhat clumsy. But hey! Its still working and doing his job very well! :)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/files/userpics/u2229/1.jpg&quot; width=&quot;448&quot; height=&quot;336&quot; alt=&quot;1.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/files/userpics/u2229/2.jpg&quot; width=&quot;448&quot; height=&quot;336&quot; alt=&quot;2.jpg&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is two geared DC motors that are controlled using PWM. Tyres are the ones that are used in RC cars. Besides-these have a nifty looking.  &lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;h3 class=&quot;field-label&quot;&gt;Primary image&lt;/h3&gt;
  &lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;
      &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;/node/1399&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://letsmakerobots.com/files/imagecache/robot_thumb/files/field_primary_image/IMG_0525.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;IMG_0525.jpg&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

      &lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;navigate around with IR and avoid stuff&lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is igor, my first robot.  His brains are a Make controller, a SAM7-based microcontroller which I gotta say was NOT the cheapest but for the most part is a joy to program.  The chassis is an octobot chassis from budget robotics, with an extra deck which is not attached in the photo..&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, I just put him mostly together tonight, and wrote a real quick app to test the IR rangefinders.  I&#039;m not really sure what his mission in life should be yet, but for now I&#039;m just gonna try to make him able to roam around and avoid stuff.&lt;/p&gt;
