I put a lot of time in this week on learning the IsoMAX, the state machine language of the IsoPOD. It's taking a bit of getting used to, but the reap is well worth the toil. Setting a virtual machine which scans an R/C servo back and forth at a variable rate was a really neat thing to see, considering it became a background task, and the processor was still available to me in the foreground ! I have been accused of ``pimping'' the IsoPOD, but simply put, in my opinion, it's the most powerful thing available to the amateur roboticist. |
