The parts that I ordered last week arrived today, so I can start to make more progress on the robot's hardware. Unfortunately, the Micro-USB B end of the cables I ordered have a casing which is just barely too big to plug in through the Pi Box case. It's not a huge deal right now, but I'll either want to make the hole for USB on the Pi Box bigger, or trim down the casing on the cable later on.
Now that I can move forward on the hardware, my goal for next week is to have the bot able to move around (following hard-coded instructions) free of all cable connections. (Although I might still have to manually boot up the Pi and start up the program first, unless I can get a button hooked up too)
