• Cleaning and Gaming? Roomba Pac-Man!

  We've all played Pac-Man at one time or another in our lives. However, have you ever seen Pac-Man clean your floor as you play?
  
  

  
  
  

  Enter Roomba Pac-Man. This is a side project at RECUV, the Research and Engineering Center for Unmanned Vehicles. While working on other research, someone got the idea that it would be cool to hook up some Roombas with some network cards to play Pac-Man on the floor, and it's pretty nifty. If you're interested in the technical bits behinds this, you can check this link, otherwise check under the jump here for the gameplay video.
  
  

  
  

  
  Feel like you need a fleet of Roombas yourself? What do you think of this project?
