Re: need compass

There has been threads about digital compass before on the forum, search and you wil find some info.

Check for example:


If its for one robot and the aim is not to develop the compass I would go for some module.

with Hitachi HM55B sensor from
www.parallax.com

with Philips KMZ52 from
**broken link removed**

For more information about building the sensor electronics there was an article about just that in the march isue of Circuit Cellar (nr 188)
