      I’d buy a bunch of two wheeled robots, and Arduino boards to drive them. I’m hoping that there’s be enough money to by 40 or 50 (I’ve got some cheap sources), so I can send some kits out to schools, so you can learn to program using them.

      I’ve previously build the one at the bottom of this picture: and I think by cutting it down a bit I can make it cheap enough to get a useful number of kits out to people.

      I’ve been working on a project called “Sniff” which is a super easy programming language, which lets you program robots really easily, and is designed so that if you’ve programmed in Scratch before, then Sniff should be really easy for you.
