  Re: Handy Board Header
 
make sure you get FEMALE header for the HB itself. The only male header is for the LCD, to plug it into its female socket on the HB. It looks like the ED72xx parts are MALE. You probably want ED71xx for female. Please note I haven't ordered ED7xxx (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Handy Board Header
 
I'm trying to order the handy board headers (J3-4, J6-8, etc). I've got a digi-key part number of ED72xx-ND where xx is the number of pins for the female. Is this correct? There seems to be a wide varity on the male J15, does someone have a part (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I've recently bought a Stampbug (6 legged walker) from Milford Instruments ( (URL) ) in the UK and they have a simple 2 legged robot in their catalog. I hope this is of help. John Hatton (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Walking robot and change of email
 
They keep falling down:-) Sorry, couldn't resist that. Check out the MIT site. They have a good robotics department. I don't know if it was MIT or not but I say a robot that was developed at one of these institutions that was one-legged and could do (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Walking robot and change of email
 
Hi, I wonder if this is a little off topic, but since I got a Handyboard I would like to use it in a walking robot application. Does anyone have any experience in making 2-legged robots? Hmm.... Umm...and a message for Fred....my email has changed (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Newbie
 
Hi all, I'm new on this board, and just ordered my handyboard. As for hardware , i still have lots of bend-sensors (strain-gages) recovered from old PowerGlove's. If anyone needs these sensors, please email me, I will use them myself on the project (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  hog_processor()
 
Could someone tell me how to use the hog_processor(). I want to dedicate the controller to only one task.

  Re: HB Memory...
 
(...) Brian, The RAM memory space is divided into two big parts very roughly like this: 0x8000 - about 0xBE00 or so = your "user" program (the C program sent by I-C) 0xBFxx - 0xBFFF = interrupt vector table (immovable!) 0xC000 - 0xFEFF = PCODE.S19 (...)

  RE: Cheap air flow sensor
 
(...) Do you happen to know if those changes are linear? Something like this would make a cool replacement for the MAS on the Talon. It uses a series of honeycombs (that form little diamond shapes). Then it measures the number of spinning vortices (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  RE: Cheap air flow sensor
 
(...) Interesting. But wouldn't the air temperature change the readings? Or would you also use a temp. sensor and adjust your table scaling to take this into account? What about air pressure, same thing? -Paul (26 years ago, 16-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
