  Re: Underwater Sensors
 
James, maybe a moisture sensor out of a VCR could be modified to meet your needs???

  Re: Underwater Sensors
 
If you had two wires hanging out, stripped at the ends, you could just check the resistance across them. Water usually has less resistance than air. (not a very cool solution but I think it would work) (...) (24 years ago, 11-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

  Underwater Sensors
 
Anyone know of any sensors that could be used to tell if a robot is underwater or not? I'm working on an amphibious robot and need a way to tell what environment I'm in at any given time. Thanks. James (24 years ago, 10-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

As mentioned before the MAX232 chip on the Interface board has been replaced. I will (...) (24 years ago, 10-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Each time a function is called, an internal "call stack" must keep track of (...) (24 years ago, 4-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
