Hello, I will try hard to, i don't have a camera so i will have to borrow one from a friend. I don't think i will be finishing it any time soon since i have my...
Hello Jo, I'm glad you called in, and I hear you completely. I have not built any robots this year. It used to be a father-son activity at my house. Yet my son...
Um, just a suggestion but you could make the robots yourself! fair enough it isn't the same but it can't be that bad. Or maybe you could share some of your...
I ran across this in my morning reading. It looks like a great project, complete with Eagle files... http://yveslebrac.blogspot.com/ Check it out. Keith...
... Too true! Honestly, though, I am thoroughly enjoying working on this software project at the moment. ... I never thought of that. I am more of a build...
Hi Guys! I'm building a project which I like to think of as a smart pummer. It flashes in a way that indicates the temperature. Two pulses, followed by a short...
hey all sorry i have not been on here but have been reading the posts. i have been working and working and more working lol well anyways heres my question. i...
Hi Jim, Interesting project. Here's a couple of suggestions: Post your schematic. Check your energy budget and management. Charge up the caps and check just...
Ozzman, The AC type chips have more drive capability (milliamps to the motors) than the HCT type chips. There are other differences too in the triggering ...
Hey everyone! I am curious if someone could point me to an article, post, or something on BEAM 'learning'. What I would like to be able to have is a robot that...
I have made two solar bug photopoppers from a kits I bought at pagermotors.com. Both move in counter clockwise circles. I have switched out a working motor...
As I am newer to electrical engineering than I am to robotics, I was wondering if anyone knew if there were feasible methods of scaling beam robots. Even the...
Hello group, I know this has probably been discussed countless times before, but all my lurking and searching hasn't given me any insights as to my problem...
I've seen that article. Curious if there are any more. Great link either way. ... +0000Subject: [beam] Memory and Learning ... post, or something on BEAM...
Oh yes, FLEDs are sealed with black shrink tubing. So it can't be lockups due to that. BTW, I've also tried all sorts of different colored FLEDs. Including the...
Can anyone help? Ruling out a circuit problem, I am guessing that it's either:- 1. Motor type problem? What are suitable motors for FLED SEs? 2. Solar cell...
Ben Hitchcock has the following debugging tips on Fred poppers: A) If you can see Fred's eyes flashing (no motor movement), then: 1) Grab a piece of wire, and...
Hi Jo, The link is not working. Sorry for the late reply. YES that sounds like what I'm looking for though. THANK YOU. Jab ... drag ... it ... skid ... ...
Hi all, I was looking at how the master slave bicores in the scout walker2 are linked using a C.C. resistor. I remember a time back there was talk about doing...
Ooops, sorry Jab, I took it down. It would have needed a 5V supply, or thereabouts, and I imagine you are operating on about 3V. Let me know. This circuit used...
... The pacemaker would be a Master Bicore. The two pairs of legs would then be controlled by a slave Bicores. You end up with a M/S/S architecture. The...
Hello group, Did anyone catch all the new content on the Beam Wiki? I had a few moments and checked it out. The site is growing by leaps and bounds, and the...
Hi, Thank-you Mr. Goerlich for the information. I had seen gpim's net as the master photobicore with the slave motor bicores, but i was thinking more of a...
I actually read "Junkbots, Bugbots & Bots on wheels" the spring of 2007. I thought the book a fun read and the projects exciting to consider. Unfortunately,...
I think I may just use that stuff. I do not have any 74xx4066's. The article mentioned op amps instead, which I just picked up. I have four 741 op amps. Does...
