LaserBot assembled

Here is the my little robot with Neato's XV-11 360 degree laser scanner. Runs with 12V battery, control by dsPIC33FJ64MC802 MCU communicate with PC via BGB203 Bluetooth. The circuit board/robot was using for my old robot project but it fits nicely with new Laser Distance Sensor (XV-11 LDS). I plan to use it to finish the SLAM challenge form the Open Lidar Project

Here is the spec.:
MCU: dsPICFJ64MC802
Motor: PITTMAN GM9434H128R2 24V DC ,GEAR RATIO=19.7:1 , @ 24V max speed 313 RPM
ENCODER: MTL MEH-17-300, 300 PPR
WHEEL Diameter: 9.6 cm
H-Bridge: L298 Dual H-Bridge Motor Driver, 2A max each channel.
LDS motor is power by TIP102 NPN Darlington Transistor(Low side drive). Motor only need around 3.3V 65mA to operate.
OS: Running FreeRTOS V6
Communication: BGB203 Bluetooth(Sparkfun) @115200BPS
