The goal of the project was to demonstrate that blind people could do robotics. I used a Lego Mindstorm RCX and a nice programming package from CMU called Robotc. Once downloaded and installed, it was pretty easy to make the LEGO move about in patterns. The site is: http://www.robotc.net Please note that this site is not very accessible.
