yes, but you have to use the atypical "network style" cable if you are
plugging two HB's together.

In your message you said:
Hi,

Is it possible for 2 HBs to communicate via the serial port using Randy Sarge • nt's serial code?
(http://www.ai.mit.edu/people/rsargent/ic/serialio.html)
I'm not too smart in electronics so I plugged a standard telephone cable betw
een two HBs and one of them turned off and smoke came from around the SPI.  I d
on't need to send strings just simple characters.  Any help would be appreciate
d.

Also does anyone have the ISBN for "Mobile Robots Inspiration to Implementati • on" ?

Thank You
Peter Eacmen
