Looks like it should be possible to fit a Raspberry Pi and/or an Arduino in to R2D2. Now as to how to program them, I am not sure as this stage. I am hoping they can be interfaced to the logic board that comes with r2d2. Started building R2D2 with the right leg. Some parts are only pushed together for now.  Namaste - R.I.P.

Added some more parts to the back of the right leg. Getting to have a fairly decent weight in it.  Namaste - R.I.P.

Dome is pretty much all done. Just need to add a few more allen screws to the inside and maybe a bit more electronics.    Namaste - R.I.P.
