     |    | Electronic Compass?
  |  
  |  Has anyone gotten a relatively cheap (<$100) electronic compass, like the KVH100, to i/f to the Handyboard? I believe it uses the SPI architecture which matches the Handyboard. * Michael L.

  |  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 (...)
