There was a pretty good article about robot navigation in the May 31st copy of New Scientist. It talks about a new technique that they are working on at...
Roboteers, This months meeting is going to be a good one! Have you been wanting a robot, but not known where to start? Then you won't want to miss this...
This promotion has a misprint in the price for assembled and tested boards, I guess that's what I get for writing it so late at night. I have honored the...
http://www.geology.smu.edu/~dpa-www/robo/nbot/ Is anyone here working on balancing robots like this? (or more generally on direct coupling of sensors and...
I was just reading a build report by Larry Barrello. He has a similar robot design. I don't think he is direct coupling sensors to motors, but you still might...
... Thanks this looks like a cool project. ... Looks like he is. When I say "directly coupling", I mean it in the sense that Rodney Brooks and these folks...
The robot would only be able to dodge bullets if the acuators can move fast enough, and if the radar/vision system can sense the bullets in time. But a bullet...
I just took delivery of 5000 Gorgeous full color flyers for the RSA's Robot Games on July 27th. If you could help distribute them, that would be great....
Has everyone heard about ExpressPCB.com? They have a service where they will make three circuit boards that are 2.5" by 3.8" for about $65. I often have...
... You've done a good job of restating my qualifications. :-) ... That's a good point. I suppose it depends on the wavelength of the light used. We have no...

Does anybody know a source for 9v carbon zinc batteries. Hopefully on the peninsula and cheap. I've tried Jameco, Radio Shack, Fry's and Target. Digikey does...
I have 2 DC motors with encoders on the back of them. How do I use the encoders? The motor has 2 wires to make it spin like a normal DC motor, but the back end...
Here is a shortened URL for the Lego/Dacta Motorized Simple Machines set. Thanx. http://tinyurl.com/f47y I'm trying to find someone who has used this set to...
What microcontroller is this being connected to? Do you have a link to the motor/encoder spec sheet? -- Al Margolis, founder www.hobbyengineering.com The WEB's...
Hey ya, My wife, disturbed with the dulcet HAL 9000-like tones of my RoboScout, is making me get rid of it on eBay. Here's the (mercifully shortened) link: ...
There is a new section on the SFRSA website. It is a gallery of club robots. If you have a robot that you would like to be displayed, send me a picture and...
Hi, I joined the list a while ago hoping to learn a little about making and controlling robots. I hope to learn enough to make and control robots to work...
The 2 microcontrollers I have are a BASIC Stamp and a JSTAMP, so it would be one of those. I would probably use the BASIC Stamp for this. I don't have a link...
