Subject: Some stuff i always wanted to ask

1)What does "suspended" bi-core mean. What is suspended or whatever?

2)On your walker discussions you talk about changing various parts of the
circuit but what are you trying to do? I know walkers can walk but what new
capabilities are you looking for? Are you trying to attain higher
efficiencies or better reversing or what? I sure could use a summary of the
latest directions you are exploring.

3)What is the purpose of the "master-slave" xcore setup. Why is it better
or different than just driving the actuators directly from an xcore?

4)Has anybody figured out a way to use hall sensors yet?
I'd love to make a robot that looks for light sources and mag sources
etc. and finds a path that maintains a happy medium in these fields. Or:
target bots (prey) could use magnets instead of power wasting light beacons
for i.d. purposes.

Thanks, JohnS.
