| i have compiled some instructions and software for the self-builder.
the soft is designed to control the toy via http-pages and to work in
parallel with a video program, netmeet for example. the simplest way to
bulid the hardware is to connect a swithching transistor to the parallel
port, which gives simple on-off control. more sophisticated versions witf a
16 step speed control are possible and have been tested. |
| An idea Ive been thinking of, is to get a cheapo video camera, and hook it
up to a video sender. My video capture card has a TV tuner build in, and so
the PC could receive live video from the bot, and with Microsoft Media
encoder, could even stream a live feed on the internet. (No programming
required on the PC end to achieve this) |

newer than the above date, look for a newer version before
reporting problems. (See http://www.XFree86.Org/FAQ)
Build Operating System: Linux 2.4.4 i686 [ELF]
Module Loader present |
| Philips audio driver:
Doesnt work in NM (no volume control so disabled recording facilities
in NM). Philips tries to help me but their e-mail support is taking a
lot of time (1 week between question and answer, etc.) I saw that NM
sp 1 solved a problem with another Philips so I thought, maybe
sp2 solves my audio problem like sp1 did for the other Philips .
Ive got a work-around though: connecting an external microphone and
using my Yamaha soundcard driver (perfect sound but I prefer to use
the build-in microphone from Philips, I paid 400 French Francs extra
for this build-in microphone, apart from the video) |
