This Challange is to see the craftsmanship of the robot along with the programers abilty to know the details of there robots movements.
Basic Start in the middle and have your robot movie to the outer squar and then move to the following squars. Then go back to the center. That is the challange.
Rules : 1. No Senors!
2. Must be in side each box fully.
Request this be taken on by are New people but that does not meen that you can not enter. Any one can win!
PRIZE is My old solidering iron and Some random robot componets. Like resitors and diodes and if i am realy impressed i will include some standoffs.
For more than one winner i will take a vote of the site to chose one WINNER!
HAVE FUN!
lol if we won the contest
just do it for fun :P
No, do it for me.. and have
Maybe you should just enter
No sensors?
What is your definition of sensors? (Trying to do a Clinton here)
What about encoders?
Yes, maybe the challenge
Yes, maybe the challenge should be redefined to only use interoceptors (sensors that read internal state) and proprioceptors (sensors that read states of robot's parts) of which encoders would belong to the latter category. Exteroceptors (sensors that read the surrounding environment) should not be allowed.
Sorry for the strange words but I just happened to read them in a robot related report and was eager to use them :-D
Aw, I wanted to use that !
Sensors
If you too are done with your dictionary. I will take a vote to see if you want a second class for Interoceptors. To vote contact me with "Vote Challange" in the subject line to vote.
And so you know. No Sensor means NO SENSORS. Thank you for asking questions. That is how every one learns.
Sensors
What's a sensor? I have an proprioceptors and therefore interoceptors in my code which, for example, sense when a counter has expired... Without this type of sensor I think we're stuck at the start line.
Do you hate me yet?No I dont hate you.
But i do belive you missed your calling as a question generator for a game show. In responce to the idea of a sensor.
Lets just say a sensor is any divce that can produce a signal that is not in the controling ic.
Does it have to be exactly
Well...
If you cant do the dimensions then you can go bigger or smaller as long as all the sizes are porporitonal.
MY entry!!
My ENTRY!!!
this is it!
i hope i win! :P
i could use some diodes..

SO??
So what do you guys think?
i need input!!!
/Nick
I win hands down
ok
Yeah i know, i sort of anticipated that when making my entry for this challenge.

/Nick
Huh
It looks like Nick is going to win this one with out a challange.
Don't make me do it...
I really want you to give Nick your scrappy old iron.
Wait a little longer and see if Nicola's balancing bot can do it!!

I think we have a winner?
If no one else can do it then You win nick!!
You are what you make of yourself.
Im sure that every body could do it,
Its not hard, i mean, i just want the iorn, because at the moment im using my grand-pa's, and hes not really happy about it.
Not to mention how old it is!
YAy! Nobody entered anything
YAy! Nobody entered anything else!
That means I win, doesnt it?
/Nick
Congradulations You Win!
Send me a dirct mail with your Complet Mailing address and a list of wished resistors. So i will be sure to include them. As you dont know were i work they trust me with access to the componets lockers so you just might find some .1% pices in your prise.
HURRAY! :D
HURRAY!
:D
But doesnt the shipping cost
But doesnt the shipping cost a billion? I mean, from the Us to switzerland?
So how are we going to do that? half-half? I pay? You pay? I dont get it. :P
If you want
If you want we could possibley work out a cash out option. You know like shipping and just mail a letter fully of diodes and stuff.
Ok, I still dont get it,
Ok, I still dont get it, howare we going to do that? If its not possible then ill just take the "random" electrical stuff.
THe soldering iorn would be 120V anyway, and we have 220.
OK
Here is what we need either you create a paypal account or i mail a letter with a check and the resitors, diodes and some caps.
Ok i sent you a message...
Ok i sent you a message...
ok
I got your message and am puting every thing to gether i will let you know when it ships. By the way i do still have one question are you using http://international-electrical-supplies.com/switzerland-plug-adapters.html just a question. because i saw some irons with the GB style and was woundering if you were useing that or maybe you have the one that takes all of them. In other words post a pic of your outlet. Never thought i would ask for a pic of that.
