Driver station power

I believe that is the main point of the Propeller! Dedicate an entire core to graphics, audio and other things! That stuff is impossible to do with the BASIC stamp! Also, the great speed makes the Propeller suitable for more than just basic computing and running a robot. You can use the power of the processor to create a web interface, or something else.

I remember when I was using a sweeping Ping to do obstacle avoidance on a BASIC stamp. The robot would stop still while it was detecting obstacles and then start back up afterwards. Now, I can have the chip driving the motors while doing the sensors, all at the same time.

I program my Propeller in C. I really like it because it is easier to program than BASIC. The problem in BASIC is that the lack of a god syntax makes it harder to efficiently code a program, and even harder to debug it!
