Robotics4.Net

Robotics for .Net is run by a bunch of geeks who have robots and API that run on .Net. I had been out of touch with Antonio Cisternino for while after our discussions on implementation of closures in C# and further… It looks like Antonio has been making brilliant use of his time since then. Among other goodies on the site you would find Antonio’s Annotated C# language and something that said that its VC++ API for controlling Robosapien that runs on a WinCE box.
