DOS Device Drivers DOS Devices may be accessed by Int 21 Function calls which support file I/O by specifying the name of a device rather than a file or by useing the Handle Read and Write functions with the STDIN, STDOUT, and STDERR devices which are set to handles 0, 1, and 2 respectfully when dos loads any program. Some Device drivers also add new Interrupt Functions to the DOS or BIOS.

Robotics nuts!Check out http://users.frii.com/dlc/robotics/projects/botproj.htm from Dennis Clark. This guy ROCKS! He has made (and sells but also releases code, docs, etc...) for a number of cool little robotic modules including whiskers, IR proximity detect and remote control, Sonar proximity detect, PWM, Servo, compass. Most of these use the little PIC 12C508 controller which costs basically nothing and is soooo tiny.The 4 servos, 2400 baud serial servo controller is a wonder of magic and he sells the programmed chip for $8. Wow! |
