Welcome!


This site contains lots of information about my LEGO® Mindstorms® developments, in particular my chess robot, programmed using the QuiteC libraries by Francesco Ferrara.

Latest News!


Chess! The Chess robot is now up and running, so be sure to check out the chess section for changes

Shameless Plug!


Mario and Giulio Ferrari have a new book out very soon - Building Robots with Lego Mindstorms
It must be a fantastic book as it mentions this site
Actually Mario was kind enough to send me the pre-release ebook version and it's an excellent book, with details of lots of different types of robots, general building hints, and all sorts of other information which will really spark your imagination when thinking "What can I build now".
