Is Arduino code available for the BoeBot using Ping and Compass as shown on Utube by Zefran Cochran?
Appreciate your help.

Hi,

We do not know of any code example that does exactly this in Arduino code but you can quite probably find some very similar examples already done with an Arduino microcontroller with a quick online search.

Here is three possible options:

  1. You convert the Basic Stamp code to Arduino code. This is not as hard as it sounds since it is a rather simple piece code. People have done this before for much more complex projects (like the code for Lynxmotion Hexapods).
  2. You find another example that is very similar and already coded in Arduino sketches for your to modify and base your project around.
  3. You code a new solution from scratch using various sources found online as reference. Pages like this can be useful in this endeavor.

When you have chosen your option and start implementing, we recommend that you post about your project here. This can allow you to give exposition to your project and also receive comments and help from the RobotShop community.

Sincerely,
