Greetings helpful companions. Now that I've buttered you up, let's move on...
I've built a robotic arm using my RCX 1.0 brick. I'm controlling it via my
computer with LeJOS (not important, I think). What my issue arises is if my arm
rotates, the IR face on the block is no longer facing the IR tower. My first
thought was to attach the IR tower to the back of the RCX, but I will run into a
similar issue soon - if my arm rotates, the cord for the IR tower will wrap
around the arm's base.
Have any of you out there come up with a solution to make the RCX system
completely wireless, or at least where my robotic arm could run without wires
interfering or IR face dissapearing? Some sort of wireless bridge between the
tower and the computer, perhaps?
Thanks in advance.
-Christopher
