Title: Robots with Computer interaction
Post by: ingrownpocket on November 27, 2012, 03:43:43 PM
Does anyone know where can I find robots or small mechanisms to connect with the PC and perform small tasks (walk, click a switch, light up an LED, etc..).
I don't really know what to call this.

Arduino.  Small amounts of it are available to buy *with* bitcoin. 

I can't really tell--honest question or is this obvious troll?

I was about to say the same: Arduino.
Check out Arduino, PIRaspeberry and Lego Mindstorms. http://www.ni.com/academic/mindstorms/
