This photo was taken before I put the real laser pointer back, and this is how it looks from tank itself on the internet. Excuse me for funny wallpaper in screen.
I’ve never looked at “Phidgets” before. Is it still running the Linux OS? Do you know what flavor of Linux? ActionScript3? What is it going to do? What is your 3Axis sensor going to be used for? Impressive Lasers, can you give a link to their manufacturer? I’m guessing your a Mac guy?
Nope~ I am not a MAC guy. The laser is from laserlands.com I bought the 200mw green laser diode and combine it with PVC pipe connecter. The 3Axis sensors is for offline control the tank if I don’t use web interface. Actually, I am a web designer and I am more familiar with actionscript for flash, that’s why I bought Phidgets since it is only user friendly board which directly support AS3. I think it’s on Linux, not too sure about that one.
When can we control this? There is a rule on LMR that new guys with IP-enabled robots with lasers must provide live feed, so we can control the robot from the front page of LMR.
Let me know when you are ready, we take the frontpage for you, will be cool!
Absolutely!! This piece had been sitting there with dust for 2 month already.
Couple issues thou;
if I leave it on and someone turn the laser on, the laser will burn out after few minutes.
multiple connections could cause the pTank freeze all the time cuz it gets STOP singal if anyone have the panel open without doing anything, on the other hand, it could go crazy if it gets all kind of commands from everywhere.
my wife probably smash it when she saw something move by itself!!
I love to share it honestly, maybe I will setup sometime so you guys can try to destory it. haha…
