This is "Timmy" the ULTIMate TABLEBot all wired up and
ready for programming http:/
/www.camppeavy.com/Ultimate/Expand.html. He features
differential servo
driven 3.5" wheels, PROTOBot bumper, dual downward facing
IR sensors for sensing the "ledge", forward facing
differential Ping! sensors for sensing the "block", dual
servo coat-hanger-wire arm and gripper w/ "Bake and Bend"
Sculpy claw, palm switch for verifying "block"
acquisition, Upper level swiveling Ping! for finding
the "box", speaker for a "beep-beep" voice, servo actuated
dual rearward tablespace sensor and reed-switch/passive
caster wheel based mobility detector. All controlled by a
BS2 Stamp and Mini Serial Servo Controller (MSSCII). Rube
Goldberg would be proud!
My goal with this build is to use all 16 pins on the BS2 whether I need them or not. It'll be both a totally pimped out PROTOBot and the Ultimate TABLEBot. I have 3 more Stamp ports and two more available connections for the servo controller. Front and rear CdS cells and a microphone come to mind; any other ideas or suggestions?
