Propose some basic requirements and target to the Wheel Robot

Name of the Robot is not decided yet. Long time ago, when Michael was not manager, the Robot was named as JMBot; but now, I have to think out another name for it. Wall S is the name from my girl friend to be something related with Wall E from Pixar Carton movie "Wall E".

here, let me propose some basic requirement for the Robot before the organic glass made "Body Frame" cutting.
Requirenment:
1. Debug port + status indication (including HW/SW Error indication, battery status indication, optional encoder data display and function key for different data display on the same LCD or 7bit LED)
2. PC-Robot program download utility. New application can be updated from PC through the cable very quickly.
3. two wheel self balancing
4. obstacle detection and escaping, because no Gyroscope available at a good price. Leverage te obstacle detection and escaping algorithm.
5. wheels are able to change from one case to another case

Excellent:
1. Robot could record the wheel speed, battery current/voltage and location information in the FLASH. PC host can process these data and draw the corresponding curves.
2. the wheel diameter is one of the parameter, if the Robot can balance once the diameter of the wheel is fixed.
3. ...
4. Robot control...

Target:
