Re: Teaching a Robotics Class
For what its worth, I took a college class titled "Autonomous Robotics". We used the HandyBoard from MIT to control everything, along with small motors and various sensors (IR LED emitter/receiver, visible light sensors, limit switches, etc), and we used LEGO's for structure/assembly. it was a great class, and having it done with LEGO's didn't impede the ability to do real engineering, instead, it made it possible to build something complex very quickly without requiring any machining.
