RCsensors

What We Need Now

• Gyro (for angle)
  • Analog Devices ADXRS300EB
• Battery monitor
• Current Sensing (to motors)(Will be packaged in motor drivers)--Phillip

What We Need Eventually

• Collision Detection
  • Bumpers
  • Sonar
• Ball Sensor
  • IR Beam
• Temperature Sensor(Will also be packaged in motor drivers)--Phillp
• Accelerometer/encoder - I would just go with encoders, according to CMU, we move to fast for an accelerometer/gyro --Andy 21:34, 24 May 2006 (EDT)
  • Encoder that goes with our motors: Encoder MR ScottT 19:23, 17 October 2006 (EDT) Not getting because of lead time issue
