Hello Everyone,
I am a Computer Science student at Montana State University, and have taken it upon myself this semester to develop a IOIO based R/C Car controllable by an Android to Android communication platform.
I have recently had a good deal of success with my prototype, and I have decided that it is mature enough that I can share it with this community. Please take a look at my Github repositories and my blog outlining the project details:

This is my first major Android project, and I have been learning as I go with this since there is no Android development class available at my University. I realize that some of my code may not be fully up to par with the Android standard, and I am looking forward to gaining input from more experienced developers. It has always been a goal of mine to either start my own open source project or a fork of another, and I believe this is the perfect opportunity to do so.
I think there is great potential in a collection of "shields" for the IOIO similar to the expansion shields that are popular with the Android platform. I have based my project on the concept of a "shield and app combo" that, when refined, could provide a "plug and play" experience in using the IOIO with hobby R/C equipment.
Any input you may have is greatly appreciated!
