I know I'll get accused of MS plugging again, but this is genuinely interesting. Go to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-gb/robotics/default.aspx and you can download the Robotics Design Studio which works with Visual C# Express or Visual Studio and has both text and visual designers. You can use it with real and virtual robots and if you search the web you will find a bunch of work that has been done with it.

Also, those in the UK take a look at the current copy of PC Plus which has a special extra booklet about robots and several good articles.

Mr Waller, I think I have just found another drain on your vast retirement time :-)

Looking around the web, it looks like you can use Studio with that as well :-) Also it seems to share parentage with the Hitec Robonova that Oliver had...which also works I believe.
