Making a computer controlled robotic arm.

Right now, the software is completed. You will find in Program below the files, adapted for Windows 3.11.
In Circuitry link below are information on the circuitry that links the PC computer and the robot. This is necessary because LEGO motor use 9 volt DC, ~100 mAmpere while computer uses 5 volt dc, 2.4 mAmpere.
In the Tutorial link lies some text about choices on how to make a robot, and their implications. Also some hints are given if you want to make your own computer-controlled robot.
