Cool new Roomba hack from Isobot
Chris Meyers, aka isobot has created a really neat Bluetooth hack for his Roomba Red.
It looks to be similar in implementation to my Bluetooth adapter but is mounted internally to the Roomba, opening up the possibility of stealthily hiding the adapter. And hiding the fact that the Roomba can now talk back to and be controlled by a computer.
I bet someone could lay out a little PCB with surface mount components that would be really tiny and easily fit within a Roomba.

do i get it right: now a computer can calculate the best “cleaning-trip” for the roomba and remote control him?
To answer omph, that would be possible with any wireless control device.
Fitting it inside the original case is a definite +
