Here is my first robot project using a FEZ Domino. Based on the Dagu 2WD beginners robot chassis and a Sparkfun Ardumoto board. Details can be found on the Pacman project page.

Being an Arduino user for many years this is a great step ahead for me using FEZ and .NETMF.

@fokie I have to thank you for the Ardumoto library and the patch.

@chris The Maxbotix is a great sensor for a mid range from 15cm to 1m. It has 3 interfaces analog, digital and RS232 which is great if your board lacks on free pins.

Greg and I are thinking about using them for our RC car robots. We would be using the ultra ling range ones.

Don't have any experience with the long range sensors. The EZ1 should work upto 6,45m (256inch) but this doesn't work on a small robot. The beam gets to wide at greater distances than 1m, detecting false echoes from floor reflections.

A new Pacman video has been added, now showing the complete Dagu challenge stuff. Line following and obstacle avoiding.
