 | | IR Serial comms
|
| I have recently come across an interesting IC being sold by RS Electronics in the UK. It is an IR transceiver IC which effectively gets connected to a normal serial UART and then just acts as though there was a physical cable in place. The IC does (...)

| | |  | | Re: Encoder routines
|
| I can offer some input on this, as I have used both the Rug Warrior approach and the Handy Board approach that you describe. As far as which method has an advantage over the other is probably a qualitative assessment that is application driven, and (...) (26 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | |  | | Encoder routines
|
| I've looked at the shaft encoder routines and it seems to be getting the encoder voltage at certain times and using that to keep track of ticks. In the past I have used an input capture to keep track of ticks. Is there a certain advantage of one (...) (26 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | |  | | GP2D02 - problems?
|
| Hi all, I used Gary Livicks routine in connection with the GP2D02 Sensor. When there is no obstacle in front of the sensor the LDC shows: "range is 77". Is that normal. Shouldn't the LCD display zero? If it is normal can you say me why? Thank you (...) (26 years ago, 19-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
| | |  | | Re: Handboard exp.
|
| Hi, I believe an earlier post indicated that, since the analog inputs on the expansion board are multiplexed to the analog input 0 on the HB, if you cut the trace on analog port 0, the expansion board analog ports will all be "pull-up (...) (26 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
