    Dear all, I wonder if anyone has tried to use a sensor for sound reading as an analogue to digital conversion, where picaxe reads the amplitude and converts into 0 to 255 value. The sensor in question is picaxe_sound.pdf and would it be possible to convert readings to "dB". Any suggestion will...

I want to connect the compass to the input pins on the chip but i...

    Java Communicate With Picaxe?

    Is it possible to communicate with 28x1 via Java code? We want to be able to send commands via java code, as well as receive information back to the java file, via serial port. We want to control two servos and a sensor. Many thanks.
