can boe-bot be programmed with c++ / j++ ?

wmn

Hi
·
I have a boe-bot , can I program it by j++ or c++ instead of BASIC Stamp Editor ?
·
I would like to use j++ because I want to communicate to boe-bot wirelessly (bidirectional communication·between pc and boe-bot) by using parallax EmbeddedBlue Transceiver AppMod or RF Receiver and RF Transmitter, do you know if such thing is possible?
·
thnx

You can only use Parallax Basic to program the Stamp that controls the BoeBot. It is not possible to use J++ or C++.

You can use J++ or C++ to program your PC and that program can communicate with the Stamp over a wireless serial link
like the EB-500 or one of the RF transmitter-receiver pairs or transceivers that Parallax or others sell (like the xBee). The
Stamp manages the sensors and the servo motors, transmits sensor information to the PC and receives control information
for the servo motors while the PC does the high-level control. Several people have expressed plans to build systems like this.
I don't know if anyone has posted a detailed description of what they've done. You'd have to browse or search the Robotics
and Completed Projects forums here to see.
