Subject: [alt-beam] Re: my beam snake...



i have a snake much like Mark T's Snakebot, runs on bicores. What type of
"snake" are you talking about creating here? As in, what are your mechanics?

Dennison

okay, since i have little experience with bicores, it looks as if im
using SE's for my snake bot...
But theres one problem, the steering mechanism i planned would use a
photopopper circuit, but that won't work when you think about it, so
what i need is a photopopper circuit that uses one motor, and
reverses it instaed of using another motor...I know what your
thinking...
bicore head

but due to the complexity (actual bicore, motor driver, PM1 SE) i'd
rather use something simpler. Any ideas? By the way it must have
tactile sensors.
