Hi,

I really like LUA and this DS LUA projet.

But, we need a connection to the real world.

So I plan to devellop a "WIFI Robot Control Board"  to use with the Nintendo.

Any interest ?

TOAST, you can't get off saying that to anyone... especially without proof.

And georges, personally I think it would be a good idea, but wouldn't it just be easier to use a remote control or PC instead? :3

Dalton: then does he have proof that he can do anything? No. If he would've provided any kind of portfolio or just samples of what he knows I would be less dubious.

Hi again

My idea was to use a nintendo DS as a brain for a little mobile robot ( like the Natrium42 robot ).

But for this a need a few inputs and outputs to be  connected to the robot hardware.

It is very easy to design a little control board for the robot but I need a connection to the brain ( NDS ).

As there is no serial port ( the easier way ) I need to use a WIFI connection.

The interest of using the NDS is to have a multithread fast language with ethernet ( wifi ) access in a box with a keyboard and a screen.

If there is some interest I will do that.

                                  Best regards

There actually is a way to get a serial port... google DSerial2.

DSLua 0.7 now has the ability to load PALib's keyboard, as well.

But I doubt DSLua can access DSerial2 yet.

But tell yeh what... I have FINALLY discovered why DSLua wouldn't compile on my computer, and I can now modify it! So I'll add a poke function or something that will be capable of working with a serial port.

Hi,

Adding a Peek and a Poke function will be really great to access hardware.

Now, I need a DSerial Supercard extension    :-)

 
      Nice work
