My Idea was to build a small biped that can detect a soccer ball and kick it back to you, but I think thats beyond my skill right now. What I'm asking is what might be a good beginner/intermediate project. I bought the Arduino, because I am a web designer, however thought it would be cool to get involved in the world of physical programming. I was also considering running a chatbot on the biped so that it could have a conversation.. I have pretty much nixed that because there are no voice recognition shilds that can interperet the entire english language, the speech it not the problem there. I'm looking for a good suggestion that would help me continue to build my skills at programming and utilizing the Arduino.
