Re: Running the Kinect on the Robot.
When I was on the programming team in the past, we were always limited to telling it a color and it telling us the blob. Does the software you are talking about detect the color if you tell it how big of a blob you would like to find? (assuming we want to know how far away the robot-sized blob is, not just find out how tall robots exactly 10 ft from the camera are.)
So the brick is a step down to 5v? Does that mean the step-up is embedded in the PDB? I remember looking up their inductive step-up circuit once and being very confused, but that was a long time ago. Do you know of any circuits that are a simple step-up? If we need less than double the battery voltage, we should be able to get away with a simple charge pump with a 555 or similar running the switching.
