  Re: Proximity detection?
 
(...) Just to report my initial findings using the rear LED and light sensor for proximity detection: Overall results are unsatisfactory. Even under the best circumstances, it could not reliably see the LED reflected against my blue leather sofa. I (...) (22 years ago, 24-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
 
  Re: Proximity detection?
 
Thanks for the reply, André. I've read that the IR emitters are "low-power". Does this mean the red LED on Spybot would have a longer range than the IR emitters if used in proximity detection? Since the LED is recessed, I guess is would have a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
 
  Proximity detection?
 
I tried, but I've reached the limit of my ability and patience (I'm not sure which ran out first). This much I know: the Spybot can do proximity detection if what it is detecting is a well-defined IR-emitting object such as a Spybot controller or (...)

  NQC spybot API submission
 
Here's an addition to the NQC Spybot API that lets you write programs like this: #include "spy.nqh" task main() { int x = 0; int t = MIN_BOTID; while (t < MAX_BOTID) { SetTargetID(t); SetTargetNote(x); SetWorldNote(t, x); x = Target(SPY_SHORTID); x (...)

  Re: Use of audio output as servo control?
 
"Jean F. Soucaille" <jean.f.soucaille@free.fr> wrote in news:HA475x.LGo@lugnet.com: Are you speaking of the VLL port or the actual IR emitter? I was not aware that the IR emitter could be used in such a way yet. (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
 
  Re: Use of audio output as servo control?
 
Rather to use sound I'm thinking about using the IR port at back of Spybotic to interface with an IR receiver and then using an I2C bus to control a serial to parallel interface. It's just a concept right now. I haven't much time to work on that. If (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
 
  Use of audio output as servo control?
 
Hello, I have a slightly different idea, I have read where the duration/freq of the sound output from spybots can be controlled, has anybody determined the granularity of this control? My idea was to harness this via handyboard/PIC to control futaba (...) (22 years ago, 10-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
