In a previous post I said that some optimizations can be made in LNP. Now I have the patch ready and uploaded it on sourceforge. Sadly I made it against a custom version of the kernel, so it may need a manual intervention to apply (fuzzyness (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) The timeout is really "expected time till next rotation tick + 50 %". And the velocity will not drop to 0, because my code assumes, a new rotation could happen any moment. If you check for speed < 7 ticks/sec (or 142 msec/tick) you should get (...) (24 years ago, 29-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thank you Jochen for your answer. If I well understand the ds_rotation_handler code, the timeout is set to 1 second. So the velocity may drop to zero 1 second after wheels really stop. In the specific case of my robot (I call it R2D1), this will be (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Yes, I have written that support. First you have to enable it, by removing the comments from the line in legOS/boot/config.h. Then recompile the kernel and all apps. After you have programmed the rotation sensor in the usual way you can read (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

You can do something else until the event happens (synchronization issuses (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
