[Playerstage-developers] new robot platform

[brian g. <bg...@po...>]

fyi,
  i'm talking to a guy from Texas A&M who apparently has some AmigoBots
(the really little one from ActivMedia).   we're discussing how to extend
Player's P2OS driver to control the AmigoBot, which runs a variation of
P2OS.  might even be able to autodetect the robot model (Pioneer vs. AmigoBot)
and behave accordingly.  cool, huh?

in addition to working for another platform, this port will force 
questions like what to do when you only have 8 sonars, instead of 16.
should that data still come the "sonar" device?
