I am in love with robots and I have always wanted to build one for myself. I know little to nothing about building robots so I thought I would learn and tackle another item on my bucket list. So what's my goal? I want to build my very own Astromech like R2-D2. But in order to get there I have to learn more about microcontrolers, programing and building, and that is exactly what this series is all about.
