  Re: Anyone know how to build a stall sensor?
 
I assume you have already discarded the simple approach of using a rotation sensor and detecting that it has stopped rotating. (This gives you an odometer for free!) Or if you don't have a rotation sensor, you can use the half width six hole pulley (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Anyone know how to build a stall sensor?
 
(...) No. I didn't know it existed. Of itself it is interesting, but I actually want to use stalls as a means of collision detection. (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Anyone know how to build a stall sensor?
 
(...) I suppose you've already considered using the white 24 tooth clutch (looks like a gear)to limit the torque and prevent motor stalls... Jerry (24 years ago, 5-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Anyone know how to build a stall sensor?
 
Hi, I'd like to be able to monitor the current being drawn by a motor using the RCX (not the CyberMaster :-( ), so that I can detect stalls and possibly spins. I can't believe that this is particularly hard but I can't find any references to one on (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RCX IR protocol
 
Hi, Juergen has done a small mistake in his example. (...) Better it should be ~f7=~11110111=00001000=08. If you want to get a little bit of math you may add every number to its complement and you will always get ff for the result. If we take (...) (24 years ago, 4-Sep-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
