Annually there are robotics workshops held at the Ontario Science Center. In the "Interfacing Workshop"
a project was set up for the Tab Robotics SumoBot to play "Laser Tag". This add-on consists of a PIC 16F505 chip and a dozen
supporting components.
Offered here is a simple kit of parts to implement this project. It includes;
- (1) Pre-programmed PIC 16F505 - currently version 1.3F of Myke Predko's code
- (2) Vishay TSOP2238 IR Receivers
- (1) High Intensity IR LED
- (3) High Intensity White LEDs
- (1) Red LED
- (2) 100 ohm resistor 1/4 watt carbon film
- (1) 4.7K ohm resistor 1/4 watt carbon film
- (2) 47 uF 25V electrolytic capacitors
KIT DOCUMENTATION - The only documentation shipped with the kit is an inventory list. All the appropriate documentation can
be downloaded here. It is recommended that you download both the presentation and hand out. While the handout has more/better explanatory text, the
presentation has more/better pictorials.
- The PowerPoint presentation from the "Interface Workshop" in PDF format.
- The actual handout from the "Interface Workshop" in PDF format.
- All of the relevant source code from the "Interface Workshop" in a ZipFile.
- The PIC source code for the "Laser Tag" project.
- if you only have a single robot this PBasic source code will set up an autonomous robot to play against the remote.

Basic Laser Tag Kit - The kit consists of the pre-programmed PIC chip and the associated
parts listed above. The price is twelve dollars USD ($12.00) postage paid.
Pre-Programmed Laser Tag Chip - If you want the chip only and have your own parts.
The price is five dollars USD ($5.00) postage paid.
Pre-Programmed Laser Tag Chip (2) - Quantity Two (2)
The price is seven dollars USD ($7.00) postage paid.
Pre-Programmed Laser Tag Chip (4) - Quantity Four (4).
The price is ten dollars USD ($10.00) postage paid.
Combination PIC Resources and Basic Stamp Resources DVD Disk
($8.00) - This disk contains the contents of both disks listed below plus extra material from
both genre's that has been winnowed out to keep them at or below 700MB and on a single CD
PIC Resources Disk [Elmer 160]
($5.00) -
This disk contains Microchip's MPLAB IDE; version 6.62 and the latest and greatest version 7.x (currently v7.62) If you started Elmer 160 under version 6.x, you
will initially have some minor extra work in 7.x because it places files differently. (I am running v7.60 here and all my 6.62 project files converted
over with a total of 20 minutes work, one time). In addition the disk also contains the following materials;
- All Elmer 160 lessons to date (currently #1-20)
- All Elmer 160 supplied source code files
- Microchip's C18 and C30 C-compilers, student versions (they are full versions for 60 days, then they lose some
of their optimization), needs MPLAB 7.30 or later
- Documentation for the C18 and the C30 compilers
- Latest JAL Compiler (2.3) for PIC/SX chips and Windows IDE with instructions for adapting JAL to PIC-EL
- A modest assortment of PIC projects done in JAL language, and some mathlibs, LCDlibs, and others
- Copies of QRP-L emails with pertinent information, errata, notes etc. with regard to PIC-EL and Elmer 160
- PIC-EL hardware details; pix, schematics and notes including KE6US's complete website of PIC-EL mods in PDF form
- PIC-EL hardware drivers for Windows, FPP and WinPIC burner programs. Including the new FPPA.EXE for the 16F628 and the PIC-EL 2
- 300+ MB of reference material and data sheets
- Over a dozen student written apps for the PIC-EL with pix, schematics, source code and notes, including the latest PIC-EL Gen v5.2
- 80 MB of assorted PIC projects with pix, schematics, source code and notes
Basic Stamp Resources Disk ($5.00)
- this disk contains the latest Parallax IDE's for DOS, Win, Mac, and Linux,. Specifically it contains
- Parallax Basic Stamp Software and Documentation
- Parallax Education Course Materials
- Parallax Javelin Stamp Software and documenttion
- 100 MB of detailed Basic Stamp tutorials on the inner workings of the Basic Stamp from a variety of thrid-party sources
- Scenix SX20/28/48 Support Software (assembler and SX/B compiler), courseware, tutorials, and source codes
- Seven years of Nuts and Volts "Stamp Applications" columns and associated source codes
- 100 MB of Basic Stamp projects - PDFed webpages, schematics, pix, and source code
- collection of Basic Stamp codes, projects and articles specifically for dealing with NMEA GPS output
- 100 MB of miscellaneous documentation and data sheets for device most often used with Basoc Stamps
- Limited source code, support software, and project codes of other stamp-like processors like the PICAXE,
OOPIC, Basic Atom, AtomX
