Subject: Re: reverse switch for photovore


I suppose it can be done this way. I've been working on Bicore
photovores
also, and come up with what I think is a better way to do buisness.
I've
attaced the vague diagram below. It's only 7kb so it shouldn't 'clog
the
wheels of capitalism' across the world.
Anyway, the idea is to use Nu's to directly opperate reversing the
motors. I
came up with the idea myself, but after talking with zoz it seems
like Mark
T may have used this design himself first. Se va'. I'm in the
process of
building a bot like this right now, if I finish my school work that
is. I'm
going on to build an entire phototropic, solarpowered, and obstacle
avoidence bot on one chip. Or maybe two, depending on the type of
drivers I
use. It should be interesting.
