Hello: Today i have just been browsing the web looking at
the latest robotic news and products while doing research
for my sumo Hinoki v.1. Last time i made an entry on my
sumo bot Hinoki v.1 it had some erors so just to update
you, Hinoki v.1 features a Next Step microcontroller with a
bs2, 2 to 4 devantech ultrasonic ranger sensors(URS), Dual
single line detectors for edge detection, and two
lynxmotion deluxe 2.5"D x 1.5"W Sumo tires (Its form of
locomotion is wheeled) powered by two Gear head motors
which makes its top speed 36" per second. All of this
covered by a triangular polycarbonate shell. Well this has
been the latest entry in about a month so i will try to
post more often. Just so you know dont be looking for
Hinoki v.1 just yet it still has to be finished but when it
is i will add it to the robomenu as soon as possible. Later
days!
