  Re: Solar Cell Output (Shell logo)
 
This is may be a bit Off Topic With all the talk about the lego solar cell, (and cap) I went and got one of each. They are a nice curiosity, but as of right now, I can't seem to find any robot applications. Maybe when the sun comes back to Toronto, (...) (24 years ago, 1-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

  RE: Curved Feet
 
Scott, I see this set frequently on eBay. There are six there now. Just search for "8880". I got two that way. It's a great set, though I feel that the suspension and joints to transmit driving power to the wheels are rather inflexible. Most of the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: David Schilling
 
Looks like a form of the Killough platform on Leo Dorst's site. The rods appear to provide a 'shell' to keep the blue base from getting stuck in the v area. There are movies of the motion on Doug Carlson's site. I do not have any links handy, but (...) (24 years ago, 1-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)

I built a Killough platform based on Leo Dorst's site and Doug Carlson's site. I have a quicktime movie and links to Leo's and Doug's sites available at: (URL) this helps! (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: David Schilling
 
(...) I built the Killough platform for the March SMART meeting mini-challenge. (SMART is the Seattle Mindstorms and Robotic Techies group.) The basic idea was to build a robot to wander around a table, without falling off, and stop beside a heavy (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.org.us.smart)

  Racing Line Follower
 
Hello I've built a line follower which is quite fast (approx 4 secs per lap on the testpad). It consists of two motors, each powering a 2/3 geared large wheel. Two light sensors are attached to the front pivot wheel. The distance between the sensors (...) (24 years ago, 2-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Shutting off illumination LED on Light Sensor for LIDAR
 
(...) Yes, this is the result I discovered this weekend. My conclusion is that setting the sensor to raw mode does not fully remove the light produced by the LED, and detrimentally impacts the sensor performance. I think my next approach is to try (...)
