Hi everyone,
We in Toronto are going to be having another robotics competition soon. Our
new rules allow for multiple Rcx robots. This means that they will have to send
IR signals back and forth to communicate. Unfortunately, I was really wanting
to do proximity detection with my sinlge rcx robot. Since the other robot(s)
will be blasting IR all over the place to communicate, I'm assuming my robot
would be seeing reflections of their IR as well as its own signals. Sounds like
a big mess:( Is there any way to program the light sensor to respond only to a
certain frequency of IR? In the mess of IR bouncing all over the place, could
I filter out my signal somehow? Or will I have to resort to bumpers and just
stupidly bumping into walls like before??
Rob

I dunno if it'd be useful for you but I've got some nqc code for chasing and evading IR signals from other bots (ignoring your own). It's at (URL) I haven't even tested it to see how effective it is so lemme know if you have any suggestions. Thanks, (...) (23 years ago, 3-May-01, to lugnet.robotics)
