  brickOS & Cygwin with BricxCC
 
Yesterday, I replaced the two installers I have up on my bricxcc.sourceforge.net site with slightly modified versions. The new installers contain a new cross compiler which I built from 2.95.2 myself (rather than the one Hitachi provided some time (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Balancing robots
 
(...) When trying to balance, there are really just two questions to ask. 1) Is the current angle/tilt/distance-to-floor changing? 2) Are the wheels turning? If you answer no to both, you are balanced. It really doesn't matter what the (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics)

Allen / Steve (...) using an offset. (...) Steve: From reading your code, it seems that you "recalibrates" the "zero" point very so often by assuming that the bot is vertical. So slow changes in reflectivity shouldn't matter. I've only been working (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Balancing robots
 
(...) I don't think there's a good source for this data (motor back-emf) using an RCX. Yes, Legway just used the motor commands to simulate the wheel velocity. It would have greatly increased the complexity of the wheel assembly to add rotation (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-04, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Has anybody successfully added an RCX to 7471 Mars Rover?
 
Ever since I picked up the 7471 Mars Rover a few months ago, I thought it screamed out for an RCX modification. I saw a lot of discussion about the possibility, but didn't find where anybody had actually successfully done it. Now that BrickFest PDX (...)

(...) Or you can just skip the make strip step entirely. All it does is reduce the size of your executables but that has no bearing whatsoever on whether they function.
