I got an email earlier today saying that my Raspberry Pi would be dispatched in two weeks.

Exciting! I’m looking forward to getting back into my robot and finally giving it some intelligence.

I’ve been working on this robot idea for years, and always wanted to basically have a very very small programmable bot that could do some things intelligently, such as pick up rubbish, cut weeds, do a little but of mapping, etc.

Now I need to decide what language I’ll use for the programming.

I’ve been doing PHP and JavaScript professionally for about 15 years, but Java and C are probably more appropriate.

I think I’ll be brushing the dust off my C books!
