(...) What's 'semi' about it ? (...) I'm not sure that this is true. Firstly, the copper windings will become poorer conductors as they heat up. And they will likely be the hottest part of the motor. Secondly, thermal expansion may well increase the (...) (25 years ago, 16-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

As the RIS 2.0 will support USB, is there in suggestion that it will also support the iMac/Mac platform this time around? Scott A (25 years ago, 17-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

The Vision Command camera is connected to the PC using USB. In RIS 2.0 the IR tower will use USB too.
