Finching for the win

Now that my class has finished project 02, we moved into a new unit in Python in which we are writing code to control a 'Finch,' a funny little robot that can perform a variety of motor actions. Don't ask me how, but the finch resembles something of a stingray on wheels, and has a chromatic LED light on the front end. A pair of thin wheels control the finch's movements, while numerous sensors act as controls (I haven't experimented with these yet). I'm curious to see what I will be able to do with the finch in the future, besides stupidly driving around in circles.
