Analog Controller (anlg_ctlr.1)

Used 2003-present

Overview

The TekBots analog controller allows for simple TekBot behavior using only analog components. The board is 'programmable' using voltage references that can be set using on board potentiometers. It can be used to create a simple 'bump-bot' functionality, or as an emergency backup of a digital system.

Features List
  • Standard TekBots Power Connector
  • Standard TekBot Mounting holes
  • Interfaces to the TekBots Motor Controller boards
  • Programmable through potentiometers
