 | | RE: GP2D02?
|
|
I own an handy-board now for 2 months and I have now 2 GP2D02 connected to it. (took me 1 hour to hook them up and test) You need a digital output-pin(like one off the spi-pins) or make use of the expansion-board, which has digital outputs. I (...)

This would be just fine for digital (on/off) inputs. But it would not do at all for getting more analog inputs. (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Along these lines, I found something the other day that works perfect for me for my MindStorms kit plus Technic parts. It's called a "Lid Access Power Tool Case" by Rubbermaid. It's about 15"x14"x6". The lid has 5 rows of various sized (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.storage)

(...) Couldn't you do this by simple wire connections? Let's pretend you had a LOT of the motor/sensor connector wires: Sensor #1 is connected to input port #1 hit = 1 0 0 Sensor #2 is connected to input port #2 hit = 0 1 0 Sensor #3 is connected to (...)

I recommend "Gordon's Brick Programmer" as a replacement for the Mindstorms Programming Environment. Tree view based instead of blocks: point and click to add commands, drag to move them, allows variables, and nested loops. No C or Visual Basic (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I've got an working design that SEEMS to get around the problem of cumulative error. I use a gear plate that sits atop a regular gear. Since it's held in place by gravity, when it hits the limit of travel it simply slips. This allows me to (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Simen, Great discovery! But like it often happens in Research... you have discovered the discovered. (URL) fact doesn't take away from your independent discovery. That sound cliche but it's true... or least that is what I keep telling myself every (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | My "new" rotation sensor
|
|
I just made a useful discovery. I have been struggling for some hours making a reasonably useful yet compact rotation sensor using only the light sensor and the fiber-optic lights. I was unable to fit this into my construction. Then I just tried to (...) (27 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
