|
It occurred to me that one might fit some sort of light sensors on top of some of the six LEDs on the Spybot's top side, and use this to select an input channel to route information from any of a number of sensors to the VLL sensor. Has anybody (...) (19 years ago, 3-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, FTX)

(...) You can control the VLL output of the spybot, so you should be able to just connect something much like the programming cable, and get two-way communications. Here's a good VLL page: (URL) (19 years ago, 3-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) Two-way communications with what? Are you picturing some sort of microcontroller that monitors all the extra sensors, and reports values to the Spybot upon request? That sounds beyond my capabilities, as well as probably not as fast as the (...) (19 years ago, 3-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, FTX)

(...) Some time ago, I have sugested the use of the VLL port to make an interface to connect a couple of lego light sensors to the spybot. The ideea was to have an analog device (powered by a 9V bov) that would just switch on a sensor, then switch (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, FTX)
