  Communication Protocol
 
Hi everyone, I'm working on a project that implies the communication of the Handy-Board with a PC computer via the serial port. The person who is in charge of programming the software that will run on the PC asked me what is the communication (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  IR transmission
 
What value resistor should I put in series with the IR led for transmitting from the hb ?. The red led that is present as an indicator is rated for about 5mA (I think they normally run at about 2-3mA) using a 1K resistor (R5) so should I run the IR (...)

  Got some code for you: Sonar on handy in feet & inches!
 
Hi, I wanted to see how to convert the sonar hits into feet in inches. Well as the textbook rule goes it looke like it takes 333.333 ticks = 1 inch round trip. Since the timer is running 2,000,000 counts per second. But in real life I had to fudge (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Hall Effect Encoder = sloppy, going optical
 
Well the Quad hall effect switch encoder does not give repeable resolution. If I say 14 ticks = right turn (motors going in opposite direction) well. sometime it is on the money, sometime it's not. And I don't have a racer.. I have it running slow (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Problems with microprocesseurs
 
Hello, I work with a Handy Board and an other board based on 68hc11E2. The first is master and the second is slave. The SPI communication is OK between 2 boards. The first send the position of servos to the second. At the start, all is OK. After 2 (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Rover based on Hanyboard is evolving well!
 
Hi You can only run the counter 4x slower as now. But in this case, the complete HB works 4x times slower, so this isn't a usefull solution. The other possibility is the use the overflow flag and integers. I didn't solve that problem. For more (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Rover based on Hanyboard is evolving well!
 
Hi, I managed to build up a pan & tilt platform for my rover out of Servos, I hot glued them together and built a mount for my ultrasonic transducer out of perfboard. Also you need to make a baffle for the rear of the transducer or you do get (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
