Remember The Heathkit HERO? Check Out '912'

Posted by timothy on from the bring-me-a-drink dept.

moorley writes "The 912 Mobile Platform built by White Box Robotics based on VIA motherboards as part of their PC Bots program. Still in prototype but they are projecting to have it out by Summer 2004. They have no prices yet, but estimate 'building or buying the 912 for about the cost of a decent PC.'"

    They have motion detectors, every time it detects motion it emails a pic/ video to your account.

    Having a few of these patroling a warehouse, for example, would be a nice addition to any security system (as well as being exceptionally cool)
