|

Hi, I can only speak for the GP2D02: voltage requirement 5 volts very low power range 10cm to 80cm beam width at maximum range is about 1cm 1 input bit and 1 output bit required Cheaper,smaller ,less power, and easier to hook up than sonar I see it (...)

| | Two servos, one input ?
|
|
Has anyone hooked two servo motors up to one input? I have a project that requires three servos, but two are an identical pulse. I was going to hook those two up as servo_a7 and run a 1000-1200mA current at 6 volts. I'm thinking that will give me (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello all: I have to ask this question: I am using a Rug Warrior Pro board and handyboard. Could the Sharp GP2d02 or the Hamatmtsu P5507 be used on the Rug Warrior as well. More specifically : What are the voltage requirements of these two? What are (...) (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I'm not an ASCII artist, so I'll attempt a verbal description. View the P5587 with the emitter/detector side facing you and have two pins on the left and three on the right. In this position pin-1 is in the upper left corner, pin-2 in the lower (...) (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Thanks Barry, great work. I do have one little question: As I read the data sheet of the GP2D02 ( (URL) ) I saw some timing specifications that i think are not taken care of in your software. Please correct me if I'm wrong. The timing chart shows (...) (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I think it's going to be a Compaq product, actually. It definitely won't be released with the free licensing policy of the Handy Board. It was developed by Compaq and with the support of an MIT student who works for them. From what I know, the main (...) (26 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Actually, the Skiff uses a StrongARM SA110 processor. The board was used this year by MIT's 6.270 robotics course in place of the 6811 design. I haven't heard how the new design worked out. Maybe someone on this list has some details (?) - Brian (...) (26 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
