These sites provides useful information on building
robots.
1. http://www.parallaxinc.com
This official site provides detailed information of the
popular BASIC STAMP microcontroller family and accessories.
Take a look at the Stamps in Class curricula such as "Robotics".
They are really well written and come complete with hardware.
A really great educational system for real-time microcontroller
control. Also the SXTech products such as the Con Carne
using the SX52 microcontroller. You've never lived unless
you've programmed in assembler at 50 million instructions
per second.......probably the ultimate in excitement.

4. http://www.niteo.com.sg
(Innovative small company which makes interesting mechatronic
gizmos. If you're a student in S'pore these chaps can
advise you on building robots. They prefer the BasicX
but I won't hold that against them)
