VNC Controlled Robot - Cameron Heights CI

Our project for the semester has been a robot that can be remotely controlled over VNC. This is a IBM ThinkCenter P4 with a homemade mosfet controller interfaced to the parallel port. There's a Logitech pan and tilt webcam on top streaming video back to the control computer, which in this case is an ancient IBM 6288. The whole thing is powered of a car battery, with a 1000W inverter for the computer, monitor and wireless router on top. The wheels are driven off two Mercedes-Benz wiper motors.

The constant annoying clicking noise is the digital camera making a vague attempt to focus.

I think it needs headlights.
