Turtle art 0.84 already has the capacity to communicate lively by serial with an arduino. This feature most be ported to the 0.88 version, and also add the possibility to download the code generated by blocks to the arduino board, that is the key component to a fully autonomous system.
* '''What is the timeline for development of your project? The Summer of Code work period is 7 weeks long, May 23 - August 10; tell us what you will be working on each week. (As the summer goes on, you and your mentor will adjust your schedule, but it's good to have a plan at the beginning so you have an idea of where you're headed.) Note that you should probably plan to have something "working and 90% done" by the midterm evaluation (July 6-13); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider cancelling projects which are not mostly working by then.'''
