  Re: Rolling Ball Inclinometers
 
(...) It's All Electronics. 2 for $1.00. 1.800.826.5432. Page 17. Catalog numbers ATS-1 and ATS-3. No real specs for them, but both are pulls from arcade games. (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Linux, and HB beta binaries
 
I've run it on Red Hat (5.2, stock Glibc) and I'm running it now on Slackware (3.6, stock). I haven't had any problems either, but I built it from source as well. (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Linux, and HB beta binaries
 
Hi Edward, I am running ic on linux since December. I downloaded the _SOURCE_ from the same location as you I think, (ic-src-unix-2.860-beta.tar.Z) and build the binaries on my system to make sure they will use the libraries I have. You also have to (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  RE: Could IR ranging sensors be used with Rug Warrior board as we ll
 
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)
 
  Could IR ranging sensors be used with Rug Warrior board as well
 
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)
 
  Power problems?
 
To all: I am currently constructing a Handy Board. Am I currently at the step (with the Handy Board) of testing it with the Interface/Charger board. The tests I performed earlier on the charger worked, and the tests so far with the Handy Board have (...) (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Hamamatsu P5587
 
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)

Does anybody have the pinouts or spec sheet for the Hamamatsu P5587 optical sensor? Thanks (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Sharp GP2D02 code available
 
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)
 
  Re: Precise timing with the Handyboard ?
 
(...) Use the TIC port 2 or 3. The precision of the reading you'll get is 0.5 us. About a year ago I posted some drivers to make such measurements. Tell me if you want them. cu Tom -- Thomas Hauri ZHW Zuercher Hochschule Winterthur University of (...) (26 years ago, 4-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Precise timing with the Handyboard ?
 
Hi, does anybody know how to measure the time between two trigger signals as precise as possible ( around 10 microseconds would be fine.) with the handyboard.

  Sharp GP2D02 code available
 
Hi, I just posted a short tutorial and software to use the Sharp GP2D02 infrared ranging sensor with the Handy Board. This sensor is very small, relatively cheap (about $21) and gives an accurate distance reading for objects that are between 10cm (...) (26 years ago, 3-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Skiff board?
 
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)
