Nice project. I wish I was as clever. It’s as much as I can do to make something drive round and detect collisions.

You might like to check out “X bitmap” format. It would do all your work for you except re-compiling RobotC.

2 07 2012
Brian

Could you please tell me how you converted the image to .pbm. I have tried the internet and have found very little information on it.

2 07 2012
Leon Overweel

Take a look at this page here: http://worldofmindstorms.com/2012/02/18/how-to-display-images-on-your-nxt-using-robotc/. It’s got a link to the paint.NET plugin I used.

Brian

Thanks

Brian

I’m trying to make a printer with a single NXT set that prints like yours.

3 07 2012
Brian

I have downloaded you code in robotC but whenever I compile it, it comes up with these errors:

**Error**:Undefined variable ‘incomingchar’. ‘short’ assumed.
**Error**:Incorrect number of array initialization elements for ‘imageToDraw’

3 07 2012
Leon Overweel

I’m not sure where the uncomingchar error comes from, but I know the second one is because you didn’t initialize the array right. You need to do it in this format: “int image[HEIGHT][WIDTH] = {PUT 1’S AND 0’S HERE};” where “HEIGHT” is the height of the image you made, “WIDTH” is the width of the image you made, and “PUT 1’s AND 0’s HERE” is where you put the code you got from the .pbm file.

4 07 2012
Brian

Don’t worry. Got it all sorted. I’m using a different method though – I’m reading it from a text file.

First off I want to say fantastic blog! I had a
quick question that I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing. I’ve
had a tough time clearing my mind in getting my thoughts out there.
I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the
first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying
to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints?
Thanks!

I have an error in robot c when i input code for the binary image i get: Out of memory for dynamic variable allocation. Whats up and how can i fix it?

18 02 2013
Leon Overweel

It can be one of two things:
1) the size you put in for the variable doesn’t correspond with the number of digits of input you gave it, or
2) you were putting in too much data–the NXT doesn’t have a lot of memory at all.
Hope this helps

19 02 2013
Max

The error occurs during compiling so it is not that the nxt is out of memory. I made sure i put in the correct values. The picture is 49 x 49 and thats what i put in the code for the width and height. Am i supposed to change something with the variables i and j?

19 02 2013
Leon Overweel

I’ll need to take a look at your code then. Can you drop me an email with the code attached and possibly a screenshot of the error at l.overweel@gmail.com?

19 02 2013

I sent the email let me know what you can figure out. I am stumped. Thanks allot.

%first_paragraphThere are also many similarities between the two which may confuse a lot of people with regards to the responsibilities of each. Although both professions concentrate on the eyes and sight, the difference is acute and can be explained very well. There is a big difference between the ophthalmologist and the optometrist.

An optometrist must not be confused with an ophthalmologist. Before they start their practice, optometrists attend the optometry school where they complete 4 years of training and pass written exams. An ophthalmologist is an MD, while an optometrist is an OD and would have completed 3 years of study at an accredited college before they begin their training.

The specialists can diagnose and prescribe glasses and contact lenses for the patient. He can also perform surgery in the organs themselves or any part or area near them when necessary. Surgery of the eyes can be as complicated as retinal implants and as easy as the removal of foreign objects from the organs. Care for the organs is what the professional is trained to do especially in maintaining their health and their condition. Surgery is a subspecialty that the practitioner needs to study and concentrate on when he graduates from college. In this profession, the specialist concentrates on the eyes, the sight and the diseases and conditions that may occur in the visual area. An ophthalmologist assesses, diagnoses, treats, corrects and operates on many of the conditions of the eyes that may need these. The graduate can also just practice as soon as he passes the exams for the course which will certify and qualify him for the practice.

Therefore, it is vital you find out more about the cost of the desired treatment. Optometry is becoming a highly specialized field, with different sections of people having different needs. Prices can vary among optometrists, particularly in case of patients with special needs. Finally, patients must find out more about the cost and logistics of the service. Also, it pays to find out whether the optometrists office is conveniently located and whether they are able to offer you appointments when and as necessary.

All eye doctors have supporters who are known as an optician. This kind of eye doctor can simply perform standard eye tests, prescribe reading glasses as well as contact lenses to patients but arent licensed to carry out eye surgeries. But dont confuse these two kinds of eye doctors with the opticians.

Eye doctors in Miami are very important to us since they assist us in maintaining healthy vision all through our lives. Selecting the right optometrist in Miami will make all the difference between poor vision and healthy vision. No one ever thinks of the possibility of becoming blind. Your eyes are after all your window to the world and if for some reason you lose your sight, then that window will be closed forever. So if you have been scouring the Net for doctor for my eyes or check my eyes, read on to learn more. Hence, choosing a good optometrist is very important. But it could happen because of old age, sudden eye trauma or development of particular eye diseases.

For example, when you live in Austin, you can Google organizations of licensed optometrists here and will likely find a list of the top Austin Optometrist names in your city. In any given area, there are usually organizations of board-certified optometrists. Exclusive organizations often have very strict standards and they require high-compliance, so starting your search through them can lead you to the top experts.

With the latest and high technology, the doctors of the eyes can efficiently conduct an eye check up and being able to determine if you have other health complications. A regular eye check up is as necessary as your other medical check up.

You will be surprised that you have other health problems you do not know by just an examination in your eyes. In eyes for example, there are ailments that can lead to serious problem that is sometimes the cause of loosing the vision. You cant say that your eyes or vision is healthy by just looking at them in the mirror.

Some optometrists can also recommend the other to their patients if they think that the individual needs to see an ophthalmologist. The patient should consult an ophthalmologist when he suspects that he may be suffering from a disease or condition of the eye that cannot be resolved by the prescription of glasses or contact lenses. In many cases, both professionals might work together to help resolve a patient’s issues with regards to his eyes and his sight. Despite the many differences and similarities between the two, there are also many specifics which can dictate when one is needed over the other. On the other hand, the diagnosis and assessment of one’s sight can be easily done by the optometrist without the aid of the other professional.

An ophthalmologist is an eyeball doctor that is licensed to carry out eye test, give diagnosis & performs typical eye surgeries & procedures. Further, let us describe each to understand further of what each can do to your eye trouble. On the other hand, all optometrists are also an eye doctors who had graduated a 5-year optometry course but didnt attend a medical college. This kind of eye doctor had finished pre-medical studies, job, with extensive 4-5 years of training & medical service.%
