Hi.... I am currently taking my first robotic course, and new to this newsgroup, so please forgive my ignorance. The information that I need may have been posted. If you have it, please kindly e-mail me or repost. I plan to build a simple-to-build but programmable robotic arm (please re- commend me other kind if this is too difficult for a beginner). I don't know much about electronics, and as in this stage, I am more interested in programming a robot. So some kind of robot kit is preferable. I also have a 286-compatible computer lying around. I want to use it as the controller, please enlighten me about its feasibility, ease of use, and cost (cost of A/D board or interface board), because I read from this newsgroup about using Commodore 64 as a start. Last year, I saw a flyer about 6-freedom robotic arm from an electronic store. I am sorry I don't remember much about it. But if you know it, or have it, let me know your impression about it. Please respond via e-mail. I will summarize to the net. Thank you! Leo.
