  Re: rtlToronto 11
 
(...) I have. after 2 hours of messin' around, the easiest soloution for me, (and to keep it in ONE RCX) was to creat a A/C robot, and have it push a premade bridge to the gap. even then it was still intersting, and I had not even gotten to the part (...)

  Re: rtlToronto 11
 
(...) I haven't built a prototype for this, but from trying to build a soccer robot, an 8 inch cube robot is probably too small. In an 8 inch cube the RCX takes up a large portion of the space. I think we should stick with our usual 12 inch cube. I (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: rtlToronto 11
 
Since we're all putting in our 2 cents about the dimensions, here goes: 12 inch robot, 20 or 24 inch gap Has anybody actually tried to build a robot yet??? This theoretical debate is interesting and all, but until someone actually tries to build (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

8 inch robot. 24 inch gap. Maybe thats exaggerating, but it would certainly be more interesting to watch. I don't want to see prefab 12 inch bridges as Chris suggested. That would be dead boring. At least make the gap bigger than the robot so some (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: I think I love it!
 
Stunning. The report wasn't completely over my head, but mostly. I liked the explanation and background information. It makes sense that parallel mechanisms offer higher speed and flexibility in machining, but their downside is the funky work (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) <beaucoup de snippage> (...) mmmm.... that sounds great. One further stipulation about the size/gap... the 'bot must fit inside the gap. No overhang or nothing....just to make the contest interesting. Ben (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Hi Chris, If I may ask, how much did you pay for the basic unit? & Where did you get it? -Richard, who’s tired of workin’ on a 286… (Yah, you may have a ‘Super Computar’ but is your system -5.5 inch floppy disk- compatible. Ha, well mine (...) (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.loc.ca.on, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) 12 inch gap with a 12 inch cubed robot *and* multiple RCX's and you've got a deal That is all ;) Dave (22 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
