|
|
Hello, all: Just following-up on yesterday's message about the HB resetting during the initial download. Removing the DS1233 and replacing it with a reset switch produces a working configuration. There was also one stuck digital input, but swapping (...) (27 years ago, 7-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Interesting. I wonder how what you know about programming languages affects how you think about them. For example, if you don't know about variables, maybe you develop an intuition for what sorts of methods help you work around them, or maybe (...) (27 years ago, 7-Nov-98, to lugnet.robotics)

To get a really good idea, examine skeletal and muscular structures of animals. All animal limbs use ball & socket joints. This can be reproduced in lego. To simulate muscles, the best way is to use the Flex system. Study the movements of a dog or (...) (27 years ago, 7-Nov-98, to lugnet.build)
