  Counting pulses
 
Could any one point me in the right direction for information on calculating frequency using the handyboard, Thanks Keith (25 years ago, 6-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Quick troubleshooting help please!!!!
 
Hey, Two weeks before we present our project and the HandyBoard got fried!!! Ahhh! Oh well, hopefully someone can help us identify the problem. The board seems to work fine as long as its getting power through the RS-232 connection. Once this is (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  GCC: Status
 
It looks like at least three of us were playing with gcc-2.8.1 over the weekend. The GCC Miniboard library is now mostly ported over to the Handyboard, and the ICC11 LCD routines are almost done being ported over. I couldn't test out the motor (...)

  Config register and E9/E1 processor
 
Are there any tools for programming the E9/E1 config registers from Linux or NT? I don't have a DOS or Win95 machine handy at the moment, and I remember that the download program for the hc11E processors must be a little different. I can't get DLM (...)

  Re: Using both Sharp GP2D02 and Polaroid 6500 -Reply
 
I have a Rug Warrior fitted with the Polaroid 6500 sonar, and a Handy Board that uses the GP2D02 sensor. Both applications use a servo for aiming. On the Handy Board site, the libraries have been altered to support the GP2D02, but I did my own (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Obstacles avoiding -Reply
 
The idea behind a reactive (behavior based) architecture of a Rug Warrior robot is essentially stateless. You may want to add some kind of schedule or activation layer (process ) that enables the low level behaviors based on some type of state or (...)

  Using both Sharp GP2D02 and Polaroid 6500 -Reply
 
I posted a message asking IF any one had timing issues using the 6500 and the GP2D02 but never received a response. My concern is running the sonar, IR and encoder routines concurently as seperate processes. Will IC be able to keep up??? Some (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Mounting the handyboard
 
I am using the handyboard from Gleason Research. It works very well. Only problem is there is no obvious way to mount it rigidly into a robot. No mounting holes or brackets. What have others done? -Matt Grob (25 years ago, 5-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Obstacles avoiding
 
Hello, I would like to know if there is anyone who has a good idea to avoid obstacles in a intelligent way. I've build a Rugwarrior robot. My robot has two IR proximity detectors (in front) and four bump switches (one on each side). If you simple (...) (25 years ago, 4-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Using both Sharp GP2D02 and Polaroid 6500
 
Has anyone set up a handyboard with an expansion board which uses both the Sharp GP2D02 infrared sensors and the Polaroid 6500 sonar device without any conflict? A previous mailing stated a person having a timing conflict between the two different (...) (25 years ago, 4-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I have a question a bout a part on the polaroid 6500 sonar device. I burned out a particular part on it -- Q1, the C3279. Mouser has a part number 620-2SC3279 which is a Japanese (JIS) transistor TO-92 NPN Poower Amp which sounds just like the part (...) (25 years ago, 4-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  HB Encoders capabilities? (correction!)
 
Can the HB measure encoder pulses faster than 1 kHz (not 1 Mhz like in the previous message: this is the speed of the system interrupt)? Assume we have an encoder that does 500 pulses per revolution. What happens when we exceed 2 revolutions per (...) (25 years ago, 3-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
