(...) OK, time to get out the soapbox. If you are trying to teach AI, and are using floating point math, then you probably have really fast computers with floating point processors that are sometimes quicker than equivalent fixed point calcs......

To the list: this morning is a break for me, so I'm going to use it to type this out. Hope no one minds that it gets sent to the "annoying journalist" as well. Here at Duke, we are teaching a class with the mindstorms. Recently, we completed a class (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Dear Mr. Kalyan, Maybe you can try those RF module from www.Glalab.com Look for their guide on connecting the holtek IC to their RF module. I believe that will help you a lot. Regards, William (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Depends exactly what you're teaching in the class, and how much time you have. Spending a session teaching fixed point math may well mean that you have to miss out a useful AI tool. If the students already understand how to call, say (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Right you are. I guess I wasn't clear headed when I wrote my original response. I wanted to say that engineering (or CS) students shuold learn about fixed point methods at some point in their academic careers. The earlier the better. I was (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

I saw an applet somewhere on the University network that translates some higher language, possibly C or a subset of Java, into output suitable for universal turing machines. Not quite the performance king, but interesting. (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Does anyone know where I could get some really good information concerning serial communication for the handyboard. I'm wondering if it's possible to have the handyboard communicate with a PC and vice versa. I'm looking for something wireless but (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi All, Most of you guys seem to want more power to control motors, well, I want to go the other way. I'm looking to drive 1.5v motors with the handyboard. The lowest voltage the L293 can take is 4.5v (Vmin of Vcc1), and that still has my motors (...) (26 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
