U may as well use an ordinary dc motor. Good analogy here would B turning a motorbike into a push bike!!!<p>B)

In the case of the meteor, yes, due to the friction caused by the atomosphere which will be acting for all purposes in an opposite dirction to the gravitational pull of the earth, acting like a brake, this braking effect is what is causing the heat. If in a vacuum then unless the cube hits anything ...

Use a lubricant a little chain oil or somit.<p>B)

Find the voltage regultor on te PCB + check irs output (probably 5v DC) if this is not presant the either ur regultor has broken or ur adaptor is faulty. Hope this helps.<p>B)

In theory I guess not. U could wire the pot in the servo upto any circuitry U desired although this would mean opening up the servo 2 fiddle with the wiring. It all depends on how sophisticated Ur servo is. Some have position control circuitry on board some dont.<p>B)

An event is the change of a condition.<p>B)

just in case u havent read everything on electronid vision have a peep at
http://www.edmundoptics.com/TechSupport ... icleid=286<p>B

stereo vision is better than mono thats all i have 2 say on the subject 4 now <p>B

solenoids maybe<p>B

Ive always liked the idea of using feelers instead of eyes. Something I intend 2 explore in more depth. I have some info on electronic vision somewhere Ill dig it out + u can c if any of its relevent.<p>B

Surely the function of the robot will determine was is to be done with Thisobject. Maybe Thisobject could B further split into Thisdangerousobject + Thisusefulobject depending on wot it is the robot would like to do with objects!<p>B)

Does the motor get faster and faster with time? If so u will reach a max speed at some point which implies that after a certain duration the speed will not B dependant on the time it has been running.<p>B)

U can buy remote control modules for just this thing, but I cant remember the name of them. If ur bot (really a remote control car!) is small enuff 3VDC should B enuff.<p>B)

Hi H hows it goin' not been on the net for a while was wondering how Hal was emerging into reality? Wot news from the land of nodes?<p>Have just finished my icosahedral stylophone hopefully have picture on my website soon.<p>B)

Hello M<p>First of all the Electroic side: How do U want the robot to behave? Do U want it to go in a straihgt line? Turn corners? Go backwards? etc.,.,.,.,.,. These considerations will determine what sort of control circuitry (tink brain power) U will need to control Ur motors (tink muscles).<p>Sec...
