 | | Re: Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
|
| (...) Right, but haven't you and your cohorts (Hi Brian!) been busily proving that there hasn't yet been a mechanism that NEEDED an RCX? Most of the GBC modules are (brilliantly, elegantly...) purely mechanical except for the train ball return, and (...) (20 years ago, 23-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | Group project: RCX units run emergence simulation
|
| I've wondered about this for over a year now, but haven't brought it up because of not making it to the BF events. Now I can't stand it anymore and must ask. Have RCX owners considered pooling their units to run an event-long simulation? Each of us (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| (...) Looks like a typo - try this in your handler instead: "bclr #6, @0xc9:8 \n\t" // Clear CMFA // (bit 6 of // TCSR) I haven't really checked the rest of the code for anything else, though. HTH, Mark (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
| | | | | 8 bit timer problem
|
| Hi I am a member of a project group at Aalborg University, Denmark, and the goal for our project on this semester is to code an operating system for the RCX brick from Lego. During a whole week, I have been strugling with the 8 bit timers of the (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|
| (...) It does allow some very interesting abilities too. I used it for a line-follower, where three tasks could dynamicly alter their priority depending on what was going on. Another use would be a multi-goal system. For instance, one task could be (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
| | | | | RE: true realtime event?
|
| It's not a true realtime interrupt. Some events may be recognized immediately (e.g. a new "mailbox" message, and some may be recognized on a 100 millisecond background scan (e.g. a "click" event). The event monitoring code does not put the task into (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
| | | | | Re: true realtime event?
|
| I can't answer your actual question, but have a close look at the way your tagline comes across. It looks (unintentionally, I'm sure) like you are closely affiliated with the LEGO company. I googled for your name and found a link to a post where you (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
| | | | | true realtime event?
|
| Hi I am trying to find out whether the event in Robolab is a truly realtime interrupt. Once the event is triggered, does it truly preempt the current running process? Input or suggestion to reading material will be appreciated. ---...--- -------- (...) (20 years ago, 19-May-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
