  Robotized panoramic head
 
Hi everybody! I recently uploaded on my site PanoBot2, a RCX-controlled panoramic photography head, which can be build with RIS 1.5. See it, along with full building instructions, LeoCad files and sample panorama photographs at (URL) (25 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.robotics)  
 
  Re: Meaning of lettering on white gearwheel.
 
Ncm is the metric measure for torque, imperial is ft/lb's hence 5Ncm is the the amount of torque required before the gear will 'slip', 2.5Ncm before it will engage again. the difference is the hysterisis. one would assume that Lego has a range of (...)

As far as I can tell, the minimum "breakaway" torque would be 2.5 Ncm (which would be Newtons*cm, or 2.5 Newtons weight, hung 1 cm out, or 1 Newton hung 2.5 cm out (about .22 of a lb, at 1" radius for those of you (...)

  Re: Meaning of lettering on white gearwheel.
 
(...) I think Ncm is Newtons per centimeter, but I can't remember how a Newton is defined. So, if you're spinning the drive shaft, and the counter force on the gear teeth is less than 2.5 Ncm, you're fine. If the counter force on the gear teeth is (...)

  Meaning of lettering on white gearwheel.
 
On the white 'slipping clutch' 24t gearwheel part is written: 2.5 5.0 Ncm 2.5 5.0 Ncm What is the significance of this? (25 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi, I'm looking for the Scout SDK at www.mindstorms.com but I can't find it. Is it still available? I'd like more information about the VLL protocol... Thanks, Mauro Vianna (25 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Motion/Tilt Sensor from Analog Devices and the RCX
 
BTW, the Duplo MyBot control unit must have a similar sensor built in. It detects acceleration or tilt in four different directions. It's a closed system however, powered by 2 AA batteries. The set is $50 - not a cheap source for ripping apart for (...) (25 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Resistances of touch sensors and lamps
 
Using the more restrictive criteria that the resistors only come from Radio Shack retail stores, you can't build a bullet proof four switch mux. However, I came up with a similar conclusion about the range of resistor values to use because of the (...) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Vision Command camera questions
 
its important to state that while the camera will work with Win 2k, the software will not. Doesn't even let you *try* and install it. If you're using 2k you basically have bought yourself an expensive web-cam. -Ryan ----- Original Message ----- (...) (25 years ago, 15-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
