I bought the boebot robot and also the cmucam1 camera. I want to create an software application in Java that commands the robot where to go, and also to see on the computer screen the images from the robot. The communication with the computer will be radio and I have no idea how I will do this because the boebot can not support interrupts, the boeboe will have other tasks also not just sending pictures to the computer(for example he will move in the same time). Another problem is that the communication will be with the basic stamp not with the camera, so the data that comes and goes to the camera must pass trough BS2. I want to ask you if is possible to do this and also if you have some suggestions for my problems please help me. thanks

Andrei,

How do you eat an elephant? The answer is one bite at a time.

I think it will help you to work on one piece of the project at a time. Break the big project down into small peices. The solve each piece.

You can still get help with the peices here. Good luck!

(Whit is right on the money)

Maybe I am mistaken, but I do not think that Java works on a normal Stamp.

Anyway:

How do you intend to transmit information both ways at the same time?
