implementing the idea
even though i got your valuable ideas, now i have the problem with the implementation in the software level. from the encoder output (its just pulses per rotation) how to locate the position on x and y direction as the mouse doing in a computer display/ or any other better calculation. i could able to develop an algorithm but not the actual code in PICbasic, because I'm very new for robotics (my major is networking and telecommunication). if anybody can help me to on this, i can catch up the robotics bit easily.
