(...) You need a zero-G environment with some clever way of keeping the bits in compartments that completely encapsulate you. The whole thing could seperate and come together with you inside. :-) (27 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.storage)

Here it is, it is working, but is waiting for IR_MODE_HI, STOP and a non-blocking EMIT. There is a light sensor on the centre connector pad. .dp displays proximity in the LCD as DEFCON.RawLight alternating with the average ambient raw light sensor (...)

(...) This is very close to what I was thinking. if you lowered a plate, lifted the bot and then rotated it and then rised the plate lowering the bot. With some clever mechanics you mifgt get the lifting and rotating done with one motor. I would (...) (27 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) You could use a synchro-drive type of platform. This has been mentioned on here a few times before with varying levels of complexity. Since you only need 90 degree angles then you could probably get away with synchronizing the wheel direction (...) (27 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi All! I have a problem with the light sensor using the included software.

I would try using one motor to drive and a ratchet on one of the wheels. Then when you go in reverse, you turn. Time the motor power setting and turn rate until you get a good 90 degree turn. The other way would be to use some kind of line (...) (27 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Michael, If you only need to make right angle changes of direction how about a design where the robot does not turn. You could have one set of axles for forward/backward with 1 motor driving both sides so you go straight. Then to change direction a (...) (27 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.robotics)
