Hi :)
I was going to write about the need for the minimum of 3 point for a
perfect TRIangulation etc.. but then, it just ocurred to me: One can use
this err... "BIangulation" (eheh) technic (in theory... I just thought of
this right now)) to direct a bot to a target.
In Fig.1 I think it's possible to determine how far the bot is from the
predetermined target and to which side it is, left or right. The only thing
that's not possible to determine is from where the bot is coming: front or
back of the target.

TMHO :)

| Hi, has anybody tried a setup like this: - The tower sends a message to the RCX. - The RCX beeps. - The beep sound is captured by two microphones on two neighbouring corners of the navigation space. - Their signal is fed into a stereo soundcard. - (...)
