This is a work in progress, here will be many more updates. We decided to release it under creative commons since since ultimate this is a collaborative work. (For details of the license, see the bottom of the posting.)

The step by step instruction for can be downloaded here.

The program for running it will follow shortly.

Update 2012-08-09: Alas, the steam ran out of the project and the code didn't get finished and put into a publishable form. Fell free to use the 'bot design with your own code though. Placing the photocell between the wheels worked quite well in the tests we ran and we will very likely use that design again.

Although this particular design iteration didn't get finished, there are new LEGO NXT challenges coming up later this year.

Update 2012-08-29: Looks like the basic design will be used by my son's team for this years FIRST LEGO League challenge Senior Solutions. More details later.
