It would be interesting to investigate a way to make them with a +V input of some kind - maybe a motor somehow - that does the switching of the output, similar to the compressor (...)

At the moment I'm trying to simplify the gates to the extent that I don't need any (...) (21 years ago, 16-Mar-04, to lugnet.technic)

In our pneumatic gates, we can sometimes use pressure directly from the pumps as inputs to pneumatic switches, thus providing the "amplification" people are talking (...)

I think the idea of a motor to amplify the signal could be used and it should be possible to put in some sort of lever that switches (...) (21 years ago, 21-Mar-04, to lugnet.technic)
