    • Wirless
      • Sent and received a character
    • Behaviors
      • Wall avoidance
  • New boards going out soon

    • firefly+?
The plan:
  • Need to make ONE library
  • Naming convention
    • lcd_*
    • uart_*
    • buzzer_*
    • delay_ms
    • buttons:
      • button1_read
      • button1_wait
      • button1_wait_led
      • button_read(int which)
      • uart_* -> serial_*
    • dio_*
    • analog_*
    • led_*
    • orb_*
  • Combine library files
    • io.h: includes all other io files
      • Buttons goes in dio
      • DIO, Analog-> io.h
