Controlling boe bot with RF and PC

bulldogbase

I need a little help. I want to control the boe bot by PC. I have the receiver/transmitter 2 bs2's and one blue tooth. I need help getting started with the source code.

Hi bulldog base, this post needs to be in the Robotics forum, you are likely to get more replies to your questions.

Delete this one and start another in Robotics with a few more details about what you have done so far and what specifically you need help with.

If you haven't done so already work through Robotics with the Boe-Bot which is free to download at this link http://www.parallax.com/dl/docs/books/edu/Roboticsv2_2.pdf

which will help you get started.

Unfortunately, you can't delete a post once others have responsed to it.

Bulldogbase - your title says "RF", yet you mention bluetooth... what Receiver/Transmitter do you have exactly?

Steve, Question, is bluetooth not RF? (or is it BT)

Not quite sure what "BT" stands for... I guess bluetooth is technically RF, but a special kind that has error checking and device matching and a bunch of other stuff built in... I guess, for me, when I think of RF, I think of these types of devices... http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=28180, and when I think of bluetooth, I think of this... http://www.parallax.com/detail.asp?product_id=30068

As I stated, I guess I am just a bit confused on exactly the products that bulldogbase has... It sounds like he has two different types of devices and I was just looking for clarification.

Steve, no problem. "BT" (blue Tooth) It was my attempt at humor. (call it cyberheckeling)
