Walk and chew gum at the same time? It's Multi-tasking
- but we also enable Multi-tasking
on the BASIC Stamp® too!
Multi-tasking is the appearance, or actuality, of doing
more than one thing at a time. While very helpful, it ranges
from a challenge to nearly impossible to accomplish in many
popular processors used for hobby robotics.
All Co-Processors usually are multi-tasking by the fact of being
a separate processor. Our's is different because we also include
timers with our many other features. Those timers let you multi-task
on the main processor, even a BASIC Stamp, as well!
Besides the eight timers, our Co-Processor chip features-
- Eight
ramping servo controllers
|
- Five
channels of 10 bit A/D
|
- IR
Proximity Detector built in.
|
|
- And
even a Subsumption Engine for wheeled robots!

of our Co-Processor Chip or see the Buy

Some ideas for using a full featured Co-Processor!
Check out what you can do with our Co-Processor using
the AppMod connector on a BoE® based
Home Center Walker or a
BoE-Bot®.
But this Co-Processor isn't just limited to
robotics. The unique Timers allow it to increase the
performance of many Stamp applications.

Check out what you can do with our new Co-Processor
add-on board and a
BoE-Bot® or a
Parallax
Toddler.

The Robot Controller Circuit Board (PCB)
|
|
A high performance BASIC Stamp® 2p40 processor chip and
our premium Co-Processor were both included on this PC Board.
Schematics and programming information are on the site for your study.

Bumper hardware, IR components for IRPD
"vision", Dual Regulated Power Supplies for safety and performance,
and LOTS of connectors to use all that power! Here is
a runabout robot named Libby
and an animatronic head named Herbert
made with our controller board.
Our Co-Processor isn't just limited
to robotics. Animatronics, embedded control, and
data collection are also natural applications. One of our
customers plans to use a robot controller board to control
the heating system in his home!
