The connection diagram has changed

Now that I have come to the conclusion that I can move a lot of the hardware control down to the Arduino, I have redone the Test Setup connection diagram.



This diagram now shows the two ways that I have of controlling the iCreate, either through the Arduino or via a USB serial line.  In addition, I have added the IR and Ultrasonic Distance Sensors and their servos.  I changed out the SSC-32 for the Maestro, since that seems to be a better bet.  I have also added a temporary place holder for a Joystick/Button shield connected to an Arduino.  The purpose for this connection is to be able to use a Joystick controller to control movement and camera remotely, not something I want to have in the final model.
