  Re: Hot Wire Anemometers
 
(...) Not to mention that the sensor that is already built-in to the car is probably non-linear as well, which means that the software in the car's computer is already set up for that specific curve. If you were to replace it with another (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  System interupt problems?
 
I need some help! We have a handy board hooked up to some decoders, which we will use to help track our robot as it moves across the floor. We have to do a few pokes and a peek to read the decoders, but we've got it all set up and it works (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) Mass airflow sensor on a Eagle Talon/Mitsubish Eclipse/Plymouth Laser. Hmm..it sounds like it might be a lot more work to actually get something like this to work reliably in a car where all of the above can vary by a great amount. -Paul (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: Cheap air flow sensor
 
(...) I'll have to check this out. We havn't actually used hot-wire-anemometers recently, partly because we havn't had the need, and partly because vortex-shedding flowmeters are all the rage right now. My memory is they are not linear, but that the (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  resistor network
 
One more question. Are the resistor networks common bus or isolated? Thanks (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  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)
 
  Re: Walking robot and change of email
 
Try out the Pages of the EE Department of the University of New Hampshire. Miller et. al have been doing some great work in this area for decades. And try out the HP (URL) HP shows the walking robots reserach wich is being done in Germany...they (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  beta test close date this friday
 
Hi all, I got a number of replies to the expansion board beta test program on sunday night and monday, but just one yesterday, so: I'm moving up the closing to this friday. If you're interested and you haven't contacted me yet, please do so by then, (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  RE: Walking robot - Related Topic
 
Related Question. I am working on a robot project with my daughter this summer. I was wondering how many walking robot kits there out there. I would like a high quality one that lends itself to further development. Also, I have seen most of the (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Umm...change of email....
 
Hi all....It seems that mails are still going to my old email addy.... :) please remove the post1.com one because otherwise I will receive duplicate messages until it expires in July....Thanks.... :) (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)
 
  RE: Walking robot and change of email
 
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. I tried the following program but it did not go faster than 700HZ. void main() { while(1) { hog_processor(); v_opt = analog(0); /*measure (...)

  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: HB Memory...
 
This is what Fred Martin wrote in a earlier message to this mail list. This is the approximate breakdown of the HB memory space. User program object code + user global variables: 16320 bytes available Runtime pcode OS: 7936 bytes Used stack space (...) (26 years ago, 17-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  HB Memory...
 
Hi all, I sent this message out a few days ago and havent heard from anyone. Can someone help me out? ---...--- When pcode is downloaded to the Handy Board, how much memory space does it take up? I am a little concerned about having enough memory (...) (26 years ago, 16-Jun-98, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
