 | | Bluetooth? —Rob Hendrix
|
| | | I'm not up to speed on bluetooth technology, but I got to thinking about a possibility of something similar to Vision Command using Bluetooth. Can a computer with bluetooth talk to more than one device at once? The idea is to have a wireless (...) (19 years ago, 9-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | (...) Rob- Bluetooth can talk to many devices (although only one at any given instant). If you were going to control your system from your PC, there's no reason to send the data through the NXT to the PC -- might as well send it directly to the PC. (...)

No slave-slave communication is possible via the current spec (heh heh research people are working on this as well). A small network of bluetooth devices is (...)

Check out this Ericsson bluetoooth controlled camera/robot: (URL) I'm missing it, however, the article doesn't mention resolution or frame rate. It can't be too good, considering (...)

| | | | | (...) Yeah, but the real advantage of bluetooth IMO is its inheritly designed for ad hoc networking, i.e. multiple NXTs forming a small piconet. This could be multiple NXTs witin the same construct or multiple bots working together! Btw, I've read (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Just because there is a PC in the loop doesn't mean it needs to do the control. The robot can be autonomous. Just consider the PC a (...) (19 years ago, 10-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)
