I modified the shaft encoder code that came with Interactive-C 3.x from four wheels to two wheels and it is below. It does not work. Can anyone pinpoint why?...
No one I know will be able to diagnose your problem from the sparse information you have supplied. First of all, when you are trying to test a program you need...
Hi. I don't know what I was doing wrong but I have solved the problem. The shaft encoder example that comes with Interactive 3.x is not perfect. It will...
Is there a particular reason that Interactive-C 5.x freezes occasionally? I know there is 6.x but I don't want to get that as of yet. Also, is it possible to...
Interactive C is not C. it is (as quite clearly documented) a C-like language the compiles to psuedocode byte stream. The firmware running on the target...
Well, the shaft encoder code that came with Interactive-C only works on continuous turns and contiuous drives. How would I do a discrete turn or discrete...
Nothing in the code you have supplied relates to degrees. Please read my last post and consider describing in unambiguous terms what you expect and what is...
In the IC window I am doing: initialize_shaft_encoder_routines() turn(0, 360.0, 33) This causes the robot to turn in 360 degrees. Then I am calling this...
I must be somewhat blind and retarded. I was going for 40 iterations instead of 45 that's why it was short by 40+ degrees. Do not reply to those questions. ...
Ajay, Good job reviewing and evaluating your test results. My only other suggestion would be to consider overdriving the encoder so that you get a little finer...
Hi guys, I am trying to get 3 sonar sensors working on the handyboard. At the moment I want to try and get just one working but I am having trouble. I can...
Exactly what sonar units are you using, and what version of IC? The current version of IC has sonar support for the SRF04 sensor. The implementation requires...
Jim, Even though that is not possible with the HandyBot, how would that work? I don't understand you still. I do know something to the like that increasing...
I am using SRF04 sensors. The lecturers at college assure me that another student managed to get them working for close distances in the past when they were...
I looked at the HandyBot V2.0 pdf from robotstoreHK. I see that there are two beam break sensors in the kit, there is no reference to encoders in the basic...
Hi: I purchased a Handy Board a number of years ago and just started to work with it again. I looked at the site www.handyboard.com and downloaded the version...
You'll want to use IC 4 or 5 i'd say, which both have built-in downloaders that work in windows >= 2000. I use the m68hc11 gcc port and cutecom serial talker...

Mr. Hunter: I was able to locate IC version 5.0.9 on the BotBall Web site and I used it to download the firmware to my HandyBoard on the first try. Thanks for...
If you just want to detect acceleration, you could probably make one using an encoder wheel. (Take a measurement each second or so of how many encoder ticks,...

Hi. We used two QRD1114 sensors with black heat shrink tubing around them as the shaft decoder. We used two black&white 20 stripe thick- paper wheels rubber...
