This page seems to have code for box programming, so you can use it as a kind of Flowchart. http://dexterindustries.com/download.html#dGPS This page has a driver for RobotC and some sample programs, I'm not sure if they're what you're looking for though. |

Re: Finding Einstein: Geocaching with dGPS in RobotC Somebody should have some robotc code using the compass and dgps for robot navigation from point A to point B. These sensors have been out for quite a long time and I can't find any good robotc code that has been posted.

dGPS returns the compass heading as well as GPS coordinates. You shouldn't need a separate compass.   _________________ string Robored = "Awesome" ~~Neil Balch~~ |

Re: Finding Einstein: Geocaching with dGPS in RobotC
True, though the dGPS compass reading is not a true compass reading. It can estimate your current compass angle based on gps coordinate readings, but a separate compass is far more accurate. I've been working on a navigating robot, utilizing the dGPS and the Hi-Technic compass. Pretty much doing exactly as he describes. _________________ A.K.A. inxt-generation Self-proclaimed genius, and future world dominator.
