So I have revamped Runamok 'Bot with 40 tooth gears for a great speed increase.
And the rotation sensors are still accurate at this increased speed. Now,
however, the light sensor misses--could be the codeing or the light
conditions in my room--so I'll spend this weekend working that out.
Before with 24 tooth gears, as you all saw in the only *proof* on-line of a
'bot actually working totally, it did the scan and move flawlessly, albeit
not accurately.
The major debate is whether or not to wimp out and drop down to you lowly
touch sensor types for positioning or stick with the wonderful rotation sensors.
So that's what I'm working on. Let the banter ensue!
Stay safe
Dave
