For lack of any more obvious place to ask this... I have been given "custody" of a very sick "Not quite a toy" robot. (The R2D2 sort-of clone that is often seen attracting attention to vendors at trade shows.) The robot was given to the principal of a small private school who gave it to me in the hope that I can repair it, so they can use it at their fund raising events. The problem is that although it has a manufacturer's name, city and model/serial number, the manufacturer (RB Robot Corporation of Golden, Colorado model RB5x) doesn't exist (according to the phone company). Does anyone know someone who might have another of RB's robots (and have schematics, or any documentation at all)? I'd rather fix what's there if I can, instead of rebuilding the complete electronics sub-system from scratch. Thanks in advance, Matt Heffron BEC.HEFFRON@ECLA.USC.EDU PS. I know that this is sort of a shot in the dark, but "netlanders" are sufficiently knowledgeable that if anyone would know how to get some info for this, they would. Thanks. MH -------
