Re: robotics anyone?
As I posted earlier, I have already been using the Neo1973 as a main CPU for my solar powered robotic boat. I am using it with Phidget controllers which are USB based. Phidgets have API's for C#, C, Java and Python. I'm using the Python API. The Neo is an ideal robotics platform with communications and navigation built in. I'm looking forward to the FreeRunner because I will be able to power the device directly off a 5v supply. Ideally I want to be able to shut down and restart the Neo using a timer or other interrupt based approach. This way the Neo can be shut down if there is low battery, and restarted when the solar panels charge the battery sufficiently. Currently I can't do this with the Neo1973 - which is a limitation.

Re: robotics anyone?
When I recive the phone I will try to run on it a RTAI kernel and some program compiled with www.beremiz.org, its automation not strickly robotics but we can share kwnolege and experience --- El vie, 11/7/08, andres [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: De: andres [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: robotics anyone?

Re: robotics anyone?
The 99$ debug board is not the same as the phone internals. It is an interface board for doing low level hardware debugging on the phone. AFAIK the phone is not available as a board only, so you're still looking at 399 (or 369 in a 10-pack) for your robotics platform. andres wrote: Hi, Sorry to be a little OT but It looks like a dream FreeRunner board as a robotic platform for $100 Anybody doing anything related? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

You'd think they'd sell the board bare though.

Re: robotics anyone?
I have misunderstood andres, I though Freerruner board is a Naked phone main board. as B sais, The debug board is an extension of the phone without a processor. No processor, no running program, no robotics. --- El vie, 11/7/08, B [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: De: B [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: Re: robotics anyone?
