Students will build a wheeled robot based on the design of the The Handy Car and subsequent PC104-based cars. As a cheaper and technically more transparent alternative to a PC104 computer we will use a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) as a controller. The PDA will communicate with the PC using WiFi and will use its serial port to interface to a SV203B - Servo Motor Controller and control the robot. You can see this type of design used in CMU's PPRK- Palm Pilot Robot Kit
The cheapest PDA alternative seems to be a Dell Axim X30 running Windows. It has built in WiFi and Bluetooth support.
Using Linux seems a more expensive option. The Sharp Zaurus SL-5600 PDA is Linux PDA. The Zaurus is currently used by ISTS. Another possibility is to try to get Linux up on a HP PDA.
