We drew some inspiration from Logo, but Robotiky progresses to a much higher level than Logo.

There is quite a bit more to Logo than turtle graphics. It is a complete programming language; essentially a dynamically scoped m-expression Lisp with support for fairly sophisticated functional programming[1]. In what way is your system "much higher level"?

Sorry - I had logo, and the turtle robot's that run it, mixed up:

I was comparing the turtle robot I used when I was younger to the Robotiky robot (I appreciate that it is also possible to build a very sophisticated turtle robot).
