PIP the robot loves Apples!!!

24 Aug 2014

Still with Jim and his Vids around 4 years ago we purchased an old carriage for use as a robot base.

Jim had over a period of a few weeks reverse engineered the control protocol for the attendant pendant which allows for a carer to completely control the chair. That way he was able to robotically control the chair without destroying it in the process the result is PIP.

    Yes I liked the idea of reverse engineering the protocol and driving the device through this and saveing the machine from been butchered in the meen time. The Joystick was what came with the chair.. Could…

    Looks like an interesting project.

     

    I like the joystick control.  It could be very useful for controlling remote devices.

    The Joystick was what came with the chair.. Could be a good way of getting hold of one of those industrial controls!
