That is what Radio Control modelers do all the time. The technology is mature and readily available. This would prevent any autonomy in the bot, you become the brains. Mike (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi! I planned to build a sub myself about two years ago but couldn't find the time to build it. What I have to offer are some thoughts. Fortunately a submersible needs lots of ballast, so you can stuff it with lots of batteries and gear. So my plan (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi - We are building a submersible robot. For maintaning the depth we need a ballast system, we are planning to use a canister of compressed air with some electronnically controlled valves. In addition we are planning to use a depth sensor, Pressure (...) (25 years ago, 28-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hi all, After reading this Tilt Sensor message I had a look at www.analog.com and found they did samples of the chip. I got two samples the other day and so made a quick test pcb. The board seems to work ok looking at it with a scope but now I want (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

| | Re: Interfacing handyboard with Basic Stamp2
|

Hi, You can use the SPI interface and have the BS2 as a master. The BS2 then defines the clockspeed, because the slowest speed you can select on the 6811 is probably to high for the BS2. It is very simple to use this interface. See the "pink book" (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

(...) I haven't looked at the schematics for the handyboard for a while, but if you use an E-series processor, then I think you can go up to 12MHz (3 MHz E-Clock). I'm not sure whether the rest of the Handyboard could take the increased speed, and (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Hello to everybody. I would like to ask if is possible to interface the handyboard with the basic stamp2 using not the RS232. Thanks beforehand. (25 years ago, 26-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

It wouldnt be wise to directly connect your 12V supply to the Handy Board... even if it doesnt cause damage to your Handy Board, I dont think your motor will be able to draw sufficient current from the motor port to run properly. Rather, you (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
