USBUIRT with Roboraptor or Robopet

Postby lafugitt » Tue Oct 04, 2005 6:37 am

I had a great deal of luck implementing a PC based remote control for the original Robosapien using the USBUIRT. Now my Roboraptor is about to be delivered, and I should have my hands on a Robopet by the end of the month.

Does anyone have any experience or information on the IR formats for the new robots, or can you point me in the right direction on the web?

If you want to use the short-hand code approach, use the instructions here:

http://65.36.202.170/phpBB2/viewtopic.p ... c&start=18

Replace step 1 with:
> 1. Take the HEX code and write it out in 12 bit Binary, with most-significant bit listed first. For example, $382 (Free Roam) would be written as:
msb ... lsb
0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0

The Roboraptor, Robopet and RobosapienV2 all use the same encoding. Similar to the RobosapienV1 except with 12 bits instead of 8.
The first 4 data bits are "0001" for Roboraptor, "0010" for Robopet and "0011" for RobosapienV2.
