Can Arduino RBBB programmed wirelesly by wixel?

I have an arduino rbbb for my robot and i want to upload sketches wirelesly via wixel and wixel shield.. I am asking because at the description of wixel-shield says that it will not work with arduino Leonardo.. and i am wondering if that also happens with rbbb. It's not an official arduino so that's maybe the reason why it is not mentioned if they are not compatible. Any suggestions would be very helpfull.. thank you!

 

How to contol servo speed from serial

Hello all

I have  renbotics ServoShield and I have made a code on arduino where from serialport I can send commads to servos and it happens with that way... S01P1200,S14P2300etc..I mean that  Servo 1 to 1200 posion and servo 14 to 2300 posion

Wavefront Algorithm Mapping

Hi, LMRians. I've been reading up on this Wavefront Algorithm Navigation and I understand bits and pieces of it, but not everything. I'm trying to learn up on it so I can use it in my next robot : Project 4L-FRED (Alfred), a butler robot. The robot is suppose to navigate around the house from the dining area to the living room and serve drinks to guests. The robot will have pre-recorded messages like greetings and stuff like asking what drinks the guest would prefer.

Converting an STL file to Gcode to drive a CNC mill or lathe

As mentioned in my blog, "Multipurpose Mini Machine" DAGU wants to develop a low cost CNC machine kit. The models shown here will not be the final product, they are simply what I used for testing the quality of the components.

Part of the kit will be an Arduino compatible controller. Ok, I know, nothing new so far.

MAX7219 display help

I have an Arduino driving 6 separate MAX7219 displays. My data will display very quickly for a split second, but then disappear. Each one can be driven fine when only one is running. What is happening? More info can be provided if needed.

New Video

I've posted a new video on the http://ralphsrobots.com site.

This one is about using fixed point math in computer programs in general.

Fixed point runs faster and takes less program memory space. This is because when you use floating point math, sophisticated procudures are automatically linked into your program.

 

 

Labview and Arduino: 3Dmicro Toolkit Arduino Expansion (beta)

3D SuperVision Systems is an italian spin-off from “Università Politecnica delle Marche“, whose mission is to design and to develop new solutions for embedded applications.
Few days ago, they published the latest release of 3Dmicro toolkit, a software add-on to NI Labview usable for firmware rapid prototyping on 32-bit PIC microcontrollers, by using Labview’s easy-to-use graphical programming language; along with this, an Arduino-oriented version has been released as well for academic beta testers, which allows users to make use of Arduino’s I/O, ADCs, timers, PWM and serial communication directly from Labview’s interface.

 

More information can be found here, while interested beta-testers can sign up this application form.
