thanks.
It actually took me two summers
(6months in total
) to get this far lol
(during my summer vacation
) First summer, I made a real simple robot that can avoid objects by turning only. Next summer
(last year
) I made it so that the infrared sensor detects distant objects, and the touch sensors work as "feelers".
The board wasn't a kit, it was already made, but I built the frame, software, sensors, and all that myself
(except for the Sharp infrared sensor
)
What is the robot name you said that can plug into a serial port and control it? Is it selling ?
I want to build a robot. What was the cost involved? How complicated it the programing you wrote for it?
C Robo is the board I used.
(the name
)
Umm. as for the cost, the board was about $99 dollars. It included a Development System,
(Aduc C
) and compilers and serial downloader
(with cable
). It included lots of already built in functions such as move_forward and stuff, but I had to make functions like right_sensoron and stuff like that.
C Robo is very easy, because it's intended for use from about junior high students. but it's probably sold only in Japan.
hope i'm not making this thread a off topic.
you can see
