Currently, I have the pneumatics from the Search Sub and planning to get
more cylinders, tubing, and a compressor. Does anybody have ideas that
they would like to share about implementing pneumatics into robots other
than using it for claws/hands (I think I'm a little tired of makin'
those :P)? Such as using pneumatics for legs on walking robots,etc. I
once saw some guy's webpage that had info on a project of his that used
pneumatics to actually POWER his four-wheeled robot...Got link?

BTW, this has nothing to do w/ the subject but The Temp Sensor...I don't
know if mines operating correctly but the temparature only changes when
you actually touch the thermistor head... Is it supposed to do this or
is the temparature supposed to change without a contact of the
thermistor (eg: you put it in a freezer)?? Enough of my rambling!! ;P

Check out (URL) on "Activities" and then "Lesson Five". Lots of non-claw pneumatics ideas and one of Matt's Spider, which doesn't sound like a four-wheeled robot, but still uses pneumatics to move the legs. Re: the thermistor. You may need to put it (...)
