#11597 Anybody interested in a cheap IMU?

Posted by Michel Trahan on 02 April 2011 - 08:00 PM in General Discussion

Still new at all this but thinking of buying a couple of sensors to play with to understand what is at stake ... I liked the idea of having a 9dof sensor

I'll add a GPS, Temperature and Barometer. Any good altimeter around ? And a few proximity sensors (for autonomous flying) ... Still need paypal prepayment of 40$ ? PM me ! Mike.

We are going to make our initial board run of 9 boards.

Do you need something more from me

I know lol and that is why i have a 200MHz .Net MF waiting for me to get up to speed with coding sensors to try it out

I'm a slow learner ... not as agile as I used to be lol mentally that is !

Yes you need it when you don't know C or C++ and only know Visual Studio as a compiler

lol I come from VB6 ... therefore, netmf is my best bet ! And I don't want a professional quality flight control, I just want mine

By the way, my main goal is to learn .net and I decided to start with .netmf ! This community rocks ! Mike. p.s.: You should see my smile lol

Man, Great Job ! And that was in December ! Do you have plans to show the code ? or we can only drool ? Has Chris Seto seen this ? He was saying impossible ! So good job !

#12163 How to access hardware timers/counters?

Posted by Michel Trahan on 17 April 2011 - 05:26 AM in Netduino 2 (and Netduino 1)

perhaps what we need is a good way to launch native code routines off of timer interrupts?

And a tutorial on how to do that (documentation and sample code)

It would be great if the three timer/counters in the Netduino ARM7 CPU were exposed ...

I agree !

I had similar reading with my scope ... until I grounded it ... just a thought, I know nothing in electronics, learning as I read about it here and there !

#12978 Open Source uIP porting project

Posted by Michel Trahan on 09 May 2011 - 12:08 AM in General Discussion

That was a comment when you said: "I'll just let you figure it out so I can download the code"

I know, I was having mileage on it lol I have a good work load and still manage to play with the netduino

I see myself more as an integrator anyway

And the main reason hanzibal would probably the lack of a netduino plus

or an ethernet shield for my netduino ! I can look at the code that exist that we need to translate ... ok I'll check the link, you got me convinced

but keep the keyboard for someone who wants it

Michel: now are you just saying that to win points?

Points, points ? Where ? For what ? How many per compliment ? How many do I loose if I make a critic ? LOL

I'd like to see how you define the space and rooms

But the interface looks very intuitive ! Good job on that 90% !

Sorry but you lost my interest at page 2 ... many variable names and no reference to it ... not for me

#12051 Easy multiplexing with the Netduino

Posted by Michel Trahan on 13 April 2011 - 03:23 AM in Project Showcase

The schematics are made with the free tool Fritzing. Should also be mentioned since the tool is a great help!

Great Tool, THANKS FOR SHARING (Sorry about the caps but this is exciting to me !)

https://code.google.com/p/quadnet/

Where is the code ? How do we get access to it ? I like the plug and play framework philosophy and want to build a netduino quadcopter with kalman filters for stability ... I want to contribute too but you guys are way ahead of me ... I just started !

So how can I get the code ?

#12542 Driverless PC<->Netduino communication using USB

Posted by Michel Trahan on 27 April 2011 - 09:33 PM in Beta Firmware and Drivers

You know ... this is dangerous for someone who reads too fast ... I tried it without having a rs232 shield for the netduino and now it won't communicate with the pc ... What are the steps ? 1- Buy the RS232 Shield 2- Place it on top and connect usb-rs232 cable to it and the computer 3- ReDeploy something else using serial 4- then everything should be back ok ? Mike and his errors ...
