Hi! I'm still can't get the chip to go into bootstrap mode. I've double checked I've got all the components installed in the correct direction, and inspected the entire board for shorts, and have found none! What can I do?? I'll try resoldering the (...)

All -- I was on TechTV demonstrating my Mindstorms-based Rubik's Cube solving robot last Novemeber. I just found out that there's streaming video of the event on the web. So, if you want to see CubeSolver in action, go to (URL) click the red "Video (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)

Hi Thomas, I just found that the retry count for EAGAIN in RCX_USBTowerPipe_linux::Write() was too small (10) for handling the large packets used in firmware downloading. It ran out of retries middle way in sending the continue downloading command (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| | Re: Measuring robot turn angle

Wanted to thank everybody for replies. I ended up attaching an 80-tooth gear to the rear axle (wheels are on the front set) after extending the axle. The rotation sensor is mounted on the chassis outside with an 8-tooth gear meshing to the other (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Two servo motor control for RCX available now. Mindsensors has developed a two servo motor control for the RCX. This interface works on IR message Sent from RCX. It can control tow servo motors with ~2 degree resolution, and can move from 0 to 180 (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Re: Inertial guidance

I am developing a two axis acceleration sensor that is RCX compatible. Unfortunately, that by itself is not sufficient for inertial navigation in a fixed plane. (i.e. a robot that stays on the floor) A fully inertial system would need a rotational (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Ah, I see. Thanks for your explanation. How would one make inertial sensors for the RCX anyway? I suppose you could rig a plumb bob to a rotation sensor - but as you had already pointed out, rotation sensors are inaccurate at low rotation (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
