Short:
Remote control for robots on Andriod.

Long:
Many researchers use LCM to do messaging and control. 

An Andriod LCM client will have real-time data view (graphing), allow parameter tuning, view system state, and possibly even provide a dead-man switch.

Notable advantages:
- Project will be used after class is completed (there is a substantial interest in using this interface)
- Challenging UI design (lots of data, small screen)
- Immediately accessible users (interview, testing)

Notable disadvantages:
- Users are like you (learn less about how to design for someone else)
