Hi all, I was wondering if anyone knew what kind of conditioning is going on with the knob before its fed into the a/d part of the chip. I know its a 20k pot...
Hi all, I'm new to microcontrollers in general and the handyboard in particular. I recently built a handyboard and intend to get started by using the device as...
I am creating a website on how to set up a mouse as a quadrature encoder, and would like permission to post a copy of the encoder zip file on the site. Please...
That is fine, as long as you take the complete zip file. A link or at least a reference to the original source on the Handyboard group would be a nice touch...
It's actually very simple, but you've got it a little mixed up. The thumbwheel has no pullup resistor. The voltage divider is the 20k Pot itself. You'll need...
handyboard.com should have some examples, as should the files section of this yahoo group. The problem isn't in setting up a serial transfer - Interactive C...
If you are using a recent (last 4 years) "Botball" handyboard the first 4 expansion board ports have no pullup resistors. These are referred to as the "K"...
Jim, I just noticed that he was asking for your code in particular. I hope it didn't sound like I was assuming the right to give your code out, but it should...
Dan, No problem, I already have posted it publicly here. So there isn't much I can claim as proprietary anyway. It is good to see intrest in keeping the...
hi i need help i have a light lego sensor and want to use it with the handy board. i do this thing but it didn"t work how i can use it light lego sensor Eric...
HI ALL i really going to buy handy board to make a robot but i want it to be a big one and be able to hold a ball of about 3 kilograms so 1) can i make a bid...
The handyboard does not have a way to run the lego light sensor in "active" mode. The RCX brick switches the two wires between power and sensor electronically....
Hey, A1 - depends on how high you want to hold the ball, and what you want to do with it. A2 - http://shop.lego.com would be a great place to start -Eric Kincl...
Hi all, Does anybody know a good resource site about establishing multi-robot communication using Handy Board's Infra Red? (e.g. advisable robot construction,...
Hey, No, but I have something to say! (ooo! ooo! pick me! pick me!) (sorry-hyper) Maybe you have considered this, maybe not, but I'll mention anyways. If ...
Yes, I think that too, it actually adds the !&*#$ problem.. :-D Does anybody happen to already build such robots? (using an IR rig) Eric Kincl <Eric@...>...
Any 1 can help me write programe for the question below, you help i will appreciate very much thanks WRITE A PROGRAM TO EXCHANGE AN UNSIGNED DOUBLE-BYTE NUMBER...
i have hb and the expboard i plug the light lego sensor to port 28-31 how i can use it ??!! where can i find a suitable driver ?? or ANY other materials that...
Serial Comm. with IR in general is atleast a difficult task, what with the needing of uv filters, line-of-site communication etc. I would strongly suggest...
some guys on the seattlerobotics yahoogroup are talking about communicating with bots in their backyard with some innowave thing.. bluetooth maybe might be...
Hi I have a problem with the CMUCAM 1 GUI . I connected the cam to com port one.( the chip for communication with the computer is in the cam ) I turned on the...
Chances are the ground is not established correctly for the serial communications, or the camera is not powered up. There is also the possibility you are not...
hi Jim, Thankyou for answering. I run the program using "java CMUcamGUI" at the command promt that opens several applets and the dos prompt remains open while...
hi all. im going to make a robot to hold balls about 2kilograms from the ground and put them in a hall so what is the difference between the handyboard...
Well, I don't think ANY microcontroller can do that on just it's own, although I am sure that the HandyBoard could withstand a 2kg ball sitting on top of it....
ok eric you are right 1)you know the robocon championship its require to design a robot to collect balls from the ground and put them in a basket about 2...
hi. I finished step 4.1.1 (installing the first component onthe main board) I put power on (don't remember if I have to use 12v or 9v) but any way! the power...
Most digital Volt/Ohm meter have a diode test mode. What power soldering iron are you using? If you are new to electronice, I would suggest no more than a 15...
