The only changes being made are to the radio-link. (We did testing of an early version of this system last year at IRI.)
Sorry folks, no holographic, bluetooth, ergonomic interfaces for 2007.

PS - That dang waterproof Victor is proving more challenging than I originally thought, hopefully it'll be ready for 2008.

Curses! I was already honing my 3DSMax skils to design our holographic robot interface....
Seriously, though. I was bored and browsing the 32-bit PIC on Microchip's site and I was drooling over some of the features. More specifically, the compare output pins. 5 or 8 pins where you need just one timer and very little setup for the compare modules to happily spend thier time generating an endlessly repeating PWM pulsetrain. Just dump a new value into a compare register and the pulse width changes, no interrupts or function calls needed. Plus, you know, native 32-bit math.
