  Re: basic trigonometric functions on the handyboard..
 
Hi, The taylor for cos^-1 goes: cos^-1(x) = Pi/2- (x + 1/2*x^3/3 + 1/2*3/4*x^5/5 + 1/2*3/4*5/6*x^7/7 ...) (which in fact is simply Pi/2 - sin^-1) The results are very good for small x. For x close to 1 you need many many elements of that series to (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Serial routines for PA7 at 2400 Baud
 
Hi, I read somewhere taht if i want to use pa7 with 2400 baud that i'll have to modify the LDAB 37 to LDAB 148. Is this the only change ?? If i try to use this, and i send 0b11111111 on the HB, I get 0b11000000 on the Host (if i try 0b00000000 i get (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

But I do not get the Interactive C message and the beep! So I guess is a (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  20 X 4 L.C.D Screen?
 
I put in an e-mail yesterday about using a different L.C.D, I made a mistake and said it was a 20 X 8 I meant a 20 X 4. I thought that there was a way to use a 20 X8 L.C.D instead of a standard 16 X 2. My question is is this possible, I thought I (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  RE: basic trigonometric functions on the handyboard..
 
Wouldn't it be easier to just use the cosine function itself? x = cos y You know x, but you want to find y. Pick a y (maybe 45 deg) and calculate the x. Use successive approximation to determine y within a tolerance. Almost like calculating a (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  basic trigonometric functions on the handyboard..
 
Hi. We've been trying to build an algorithm which will allow our HB to travel between given points. We need to use the inverse cosine function (cos^-1), how can we do that? Is there a math library which contains this and other trig functions? (...) (28 years ago, 9-Mar-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
