Ok I am still learning about communication with gumstix and the
robostix. Basically I will have to code a program on the RoboStix to
accept commands from my GumStix, and then make a program on my GumStix
to send commands to my RoboStix to process information or have it
retrieve information. So my GumStix is the Higher thinker, and the
RoboStix is my lower thinker.
I have already started to build a robot using that combination with
the Gumstix and Mavric Microcontroller. I was hoping by the purchase of
the gumstix to have a more intergrated setup, but it seams the machanics
are the same. What advantage do I have with the GumStix RoboStix
combo?
What is the recommended communication between the GumStix and
RoboStix? I2C, Serial?
When I first purchased the RoboStix I was under the impression that
thier already a built in connector to connect the RoboStix to the
GumStix as they both have the 60-pin Hirose connector. Does that
ability actually exsist?
