Webcam motion tracking and Portal turret sounds

Some further testing of my serial servo controller. I added the support for Parallax, Mini SSC II and Pololu servo controller protocols in to the controller software for easy interfacing with existing software.

Here I'm testing it with a pan&tilt base with a webcam attached to it and RoboRealm running on the computer, outputting servo positions in Mini SSC II mode. The sounds played from the computer are from the Portal game.

I made a script to the RoboRealm that looks for the brightest spot (I used a flashlight to test it out) and tries to center it to the screen. When in search mode the sound "Where are you?" is played and when the spot is found and centered the "There you are!" is played.

The controller is an ATmega8 @ 14 MHz, running my own servo controller software.
