Anyone interested in hacking the Roomba using Racket?
Looks like, once you've hooked up to the Roomba's serial port somehow, the protocol is simple. So, one could run the Racket code on a laptop with a wired/wireless serial link to the Roomba, or run the Racket code on a Raspberry Pi that rides along on the Roomba using the same serial interface. I might write the Racket library if nobody else does/has.
