... Hi Jon. This brings up an interesting question. Bioloid has been around for a couple of years now, and it's a great system that allows a lot of versatility...
... I was thinking a little more about this. The main problem I saw, when trying to get Nico-6 to go at highest velocity, is that the feet were banging into...
Changing the update/refresh is an interesting idea, and a lot easer then radically changing the mechanical parts! I think I'll try incorporating it into my...
... The Bioloid servos are bigger, more powerful, more expensive, and more power hungry. But, they may also be the wave of the future, like lithium batteries,...
... If the velocity per move with several small moves is the same as with one large move, then the acceleration is the same, and nothing has changed. Still get...
Hi Jon! I hadn't known that about Bioloid servos. I've only worked with my "dumb" Futaba and Hi-Tec servos. Aren't the Bioloid servos bigger? Alan KM6VV...
I wasn't thinking so much of using less acceleration/deceleration, but rather just breaking up the moves into small moves. I suppose one could actually change...
Cross posted to HBRobotics That gives ME an idea. I've been considering various new ways we can run our micromouse 'bots in the maze, and as I don't have a...
What everyone else said is correct, but I'll add one more detail: Even if it was possible to make it work, to get a capacity even remotely comparable to what a...

Here's something that I posted on FRR, but it might work for a new competition for Robothon albeit on a smaller scale. It could be run just like a pacman...
Going back to David's original comment (I think), then the intent of reducing the refresh rate to the R/C servos is to soften the movements by lowering their...
I've used pretty much all of the servos, they all suffer the same from slow or missing pulses. I hear that the digitals do not, they retain their pulse value...
... Ken, speaking from direct experience .... back in the early days of electronics, when I was a newly minted ham operator, I was using the heavy-duty power...
... Update to this. This morning, I dug out my old servo controller that allows the update period to be set as long as 50-msec, and tested it with a Hitec...
Ken, Power line conditioning is way more difficult than adding caps. The short answer to your question is : No, that won't work. The UPS is pretty much your...
Ken, Attaching a capacitor across the AC mains will only result in a large spark at the plug and a big bang from the capacitor as it explodes when you plug in...
Ken, The caps won't get you through a brown out of any length. Only a UPS will do that. If you wanted to protect the input supply for glitches and surges,...
Hi all, I just joined the group to ask a question about home AC power. I'm fairly electronics ignorant, but good at following instructions and not afraid to...
... LOL. I meant Cyc as in Lenat's CYC, and was basically thrashing the idea of handcoding every factoid and algorithm. ... Hmm, I did this 3 or 4 years ago,...
... What???? ... Yes I took that for granted, but it is very servo dependant, The Hitec servos generally are much better for this than the GWS except the S06...

... You might not get more than general ideas from the combination lock pages. Look at pages regarding general logic design too. What you really need to do is...
... Yeah, another fine example of how the robotics hardware is at least a generation ahead of the software/algorithms for doing AI. However, in the almost...
Hello Dan. Thank you for taking the time to read my message. I do appreciate your assistance very much . I've downloaded the datasheet for the L293B and I...
It seems to me, from experience that people who have access to the sort of robot you are dreaming about, don't have any idea of what to do with it, as if it is...
... Thanks for the detailed rundown on the Ladies. To me, the general design of Elizabeth/Robotcop is ideal for both utilitarian work around the house, and...
