  IR reflective sensors and Polaroid 6500 w/Expansion Board
 
With the QRB1114 IR reflective sensors does the sensor need voltage supplied or is that just for the transmitter? Because all I am using them for right now is to detect infrared light. Also does the expansion board take up the connectors on the HB (...) (25 years ago, 10-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Motors
 
Tim, Check out www.acroname.com. They have motors there that are a little slow, but are geared DC and run with the HandyBoard 9.6 volts. Use larger wheels to get more speed, or...... If you want the motors to be faster, you can pull one of the L293D (...) (25 years ago, 9-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Re: Motors
 
no doubt Micro Mo motors are sweet, but if the project is on a hobby budget, also consider: All Electronics -An electronics surplus company with a decent selection of motors and lots of other neat gadgets for robot building. This will be among the (...) (25 years ago, 9-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  GP2D12 and Handyboard
 
Hi all! I recently got hold of a sharp GP2D12 ir range sensor (The analog version, not 8-bit serial) Upon connecting it to my handyboard (Vcc-5v, Gnd-Gnd, and Vo to analog port) I get between 249 and about 251 value from the analog port. Clearly no (...) (25 years ago, 8-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  More IR proximity detectors
 
We're trying to use the little radio shack IR transmitter and reciever units to build our own. We're not sure exactly how this will work, but before we get too far, is this a reasonable thing to do? Will these be strong enough to use as proximity (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: IR proximity detectors
 
(...) [snip] Andrew, Take a peek at (URL) and bonk on the IRPD project. Getting IR demodulators to work reliably is a bit more tricky that just looking for a bounce. I have done a LOT of work in that area and have found that you really need to take (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
