 | | Schematic Question
|
|
I have been looking at the schematic for the handyboard and the RS232/Charger board. I noticed something that seems wrong. But how could it since this has been out for some time? Power goes out pin 4 of J10 on the Charger board and pin 4 on (...) (26 years ago, 30-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I am looking for good methods for quick prototyping and would appreciate all suggestions. In Mobile Robots by Joseph L. Jones and Anita M Flynn, they suggest using Scotchflex by 3M and Speedwire by Bicc-Vero company as two good alternatives to using (...) (26 years ago, 30-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | memory expansion
|
|
Hello, Has anyone figured out a GOOD way to expand the memory on the Handy Board? I would like to try using a 32 pin simm (I have sizes ranging from 256k to 4M) to store mappings (distance and turns) created by the initial "adventure" it takes of (...)

| | Smooth PWM with IC 3.2
|
|
I know this is an old thread but I am just now getting to the point where I can finally start programming. I am using IC 3.2 and the expansion board. I downloaded the smooth PWM routines from Newton Labs but I get errors when I load them into the (...) (26 years ago, 29-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | More Polaroid problems!
|
|
Well, everything seemed ok, but now (we are in a crunch again, the final presentation is Friday!) there is another problem. We seem to be getting some erroneous distances and I think I know why. The echo signal is pretty noisy, so my question is, (...) (26 years ago, 29-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) There is a little strip of four pins for external battery power and are available with the standard battery pack installed. Two of these are battery positive, two are at ground. Shorting them out is a good way to let the smoke genie loose. (26 years ago, 28-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | IR Transmit
|

I am trying to get two handyboards to exchange data via the IR. I have tried code from the Dave Negro and Pete McCann code, but I still cannot get reliable data transmission at any range. Summary of situation: REC80-IR.icb: Reliable reception of (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Note that sonar in air is susceptible to the same environmental issues as sonar anywhere. In particular it is susceptible to changes in temperature and changes in air pressure. Both of which create a boundary layer that reflects some of the energy. (...) (26 years ago, 28-Apr-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
