[Robotgroup] motion capture lego-like mini robot parts

[Leslie Filip]

If you are working on the flashlight (and especially after all the  
work that went into the sand thingy) then you deserve a break! As I  
said in response to Denise, it is not made by Lego. It is "Lego-like"  
in that the parts all snap together, including the electrical  
connections. To me this is cooler because kids can program them  
naturally rather than having to think in terms of writing code for  
the motions.
