Hi Aditya

Actually, that's even closer to what I'm going to do. The main part of the 
project is discovering ways to detect objects autonomously, with the FR riding 
the vehicle. I'd use GPS if I had a bigger robot, but I'm afraid that's not an 
option :)
I have little experience in handling camera input, too, and I'm not concerned 
about Freerunner's computing power.
Thanks for your offer. I'd be happy if I could share my new experiences, too.

Cheers
rhn
