(...) Essentially, I took the October post with the "updated" API, and cut-&-pasted it into a MacNQC include file. The problem seemed to stem from the fact that each line had two leading spaces, which when I changed to single tabs worked fine, and (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) Jay, I think that both the Spybot and the RCX kits (PCB + parts) would make sense. There is a large community of Spybot owners here that would be just happy to buy the kit and I believe even a larger one for the RCX. We can run a poll to (...)

(...) This is certainly possible. I connected the serial port receiver of the PIC to the IR receivers on the Spybot in hopes of detecting my own transmissions for use as a simple proximity detector. It almost works when the Spybot translucent cover (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) Performance is an interesting question. For the article example where I used a Devantech SRF04 Sonar and a Sharp GP2D12 IR Rangefinder, the performance is limited by the senors. The SRF04 has a minimum cycle time of at least 10ms (this is the (...) (21 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) And first, thank you (& Mark, John, and others) for figuring all this out! I'm trying to program a Spybot using NQC (via the MacNQC GUI), and without support like this & Dave's NQC, I'd never get anywhere. Again, THANK YOU to the community. (...)
