 | | Where can I get GP1U52X IR sensors?
|
|
Hello there Handyboard users in the world, I read a lot about these IR sensors: Sharp GP1U52 or GP1U56Y. I would like to use some of these sensors in my own robot, that I build around a 8051 and a Forth interpreter. Now it has a few bumper switches (...)

Hello! Could anybody please tell me the proper step in controlling the servo motor by HB ? ^s I connected the servo motor to the HB and typed in the servo motor control functions but none of them are working... Thanks in advance. (28 years ago, 17-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) if your counting program is written in IC, and not assembly lang, it might be too slow and occasionally miss counts. -F (28 years ago, 17-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) That is a mistake in the directions. They should be 47uF axials, like you have. I will fix this now. -Fred (28 years ago, 17-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

So, nobody has any experience with hall effect sensors as encoders, eh? :-) (28 years ago, 17-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi to everyone, I just got my Handy Board Kit and going through the very first step of the assembly i found the first problem. In the handy board assembly instructions it describes capacitors C15 and C16 as 4.7uF Tantalum capacitors but in my kit (...) (28 years ago, 17-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

The FAQ has information on sending and receiving info thru the serial port. My Question is: How do I do the other end in C. This is what I got the computer side of the serial cable: port = open("/dev/ttyS3",O_RDWD); <- THis is from my head, not (...) (28 years ago, 16-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Dirk, Without actually seeing your icb function, it would be hard to determine exactly what is going on. But here are some guesses: 1) When you are modifying control registers in MC, make sure that you use bit commands so that you don't set or erase (...)

Thanks to Joeo for the hints on caputuring data from the handyboard. I have another question: Why does my sony infrared system stop working after calling a function which I have defined in an icb file? I have a number of functions defined in that (...)

I'm using a hall effect sensor as a shaft encoder. 8 magnets have been placed on a wheel of my bot, such that they turn the sensor on and off as they pass by. I have written a small program to test the encoder, which makes the robot go forward 10 (...) (28 years ago, 15-Jul-96, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
