  Snaptrax tracks
 
Hi there, I am just wondering - Snaptrax, the Spybotics tracked thing looks like it has longer rubber treads than treads included in RIS. Is it true or not? I tried to build treads with similar design and it looks like there's much more friction (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: LNP problem
 
(...) This works in deed! Thank you so much Michael! No way I would have found this myself. BB (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNP problem
 
(...) Ok. This is indeed the result if you run the original LNP package. There are several problems with your sources, too. So try the following to get things done: First, go to the lnpd subdir and edit rcxtty.c. In function tty_init you find a line (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNP problem
 
(...) Thanks. Too bad it doesn't work, but at least now I know it's not me :) Please let me know if I can be of any help. BB (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNP problem
 
(...) I know that this won't help, but I tried your program (and the lnptest.c program from the lnp distribution) and got the same errors. No message came through, only frame errors. Will have a closer look at this. Regards, Michael (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNP problem
 
(...) You are right, that would have probably given me a segfaut if the handler would have ever been called, but it isn't. Even a single, static printf in the handler doesn't work. What worries me are the error messages lnpd reports: (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: A Generic Idea
 
(...) There's a caveat you miss, it is limited using the forms of modulation that modems use (ie FSK derived). For example ISDN uses a different sort of modulation (ie Q-modulation) and it does 128k over the same phone lines. I use ISDN to connect (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: A Generic Idea
 
(...) Well, to find outline of objects you'd need a low-res (easy to simplify and automatically filters out irrelevant details), color (to avoid two objects of the same material getting their outlines fused together by the image processing (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: A Generic Idea
 
(...) "All ideas are stupid until someone proves they work." :D No, I've been thinking the same thing. (So it can't be stupid haha). A PDA with built-in webcam (and mike) + hotwiring an RCX input to a serial port on the PDA would probably be the (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: A Generic Idea
 
(...) Hmm I chose cel phones because they are pretty standard products (unlike Radio links etc), simple to use (few presses) and so on, but of course, any link to a unit with memory/cpu could be an expansion... (...) ...Like an IR link to another (...) (23 years ago, 5-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
