Hello, I don’t know if this is covered elsewhere but I was wondering what method I would use to program a robot to work just off of solar power, no batteries.
How would I program a robot to keep track of what it is in the middle of doing so that the next time the sun comes up, it can resume its tasks? I know solar isn’t very powerful for this stuff but I’m thinking that a bunch of little robots could do the job.
Ok you pulled my arm and want the “grand scheme” lol. http://www.societyofrobots.com/robotforum/Smileys/default/wink.gif"%20%20alt=";)"%20%20title=“Wink”%20%20style="vertical-align:%20bottom;%20font-family:%20Verdana,%20Arial,%20Helvetica,%20sans-serif;%20line-height:%2017.4720001220703px;%20background-color:%20rgb(231,%20234,%20239); I want to convert construction vehicle toys into robots that can do some excavating, like an exo-skeleton that I install onto the toy… dig dig dig… dump dump dump.
Oooo… side thought… another robot hooked up to a solar battery bank that does nothing but shoots a laser beam to the photvoltic cells of the robots, this way the only thing that needs a battery is the laser emitter.
