Robots inside a computer simulation…

So recently I’ve been playing around with Garry’s Mod for Half-Life 2, and I stumbled upon a very interesting addon for it. The add-on is called Wiremod, which allows a user to simulate several computer and embedded systems inside GMod. I have been working on an attack drone of sorts, and I’ve been working on some of its components these last couple of days.

I like this add-on, as it allows me to work with virtualized embedded systems, and it’s sort of what I did with FIRST Robotics Competition, except it doesn’t cost nearly $10,000 to do.

I might post a video or a couple pictures later when I get something that works a little better, but for now I’m still in the early design and testing phases.
