GTS Counting
I have installed the GTS sensors on both sides of the robot. The documentation indicates that the pulse from the sensor is a 39 microsecond wide rising pulse for a clockwise rotation and an 83 microsecond wide pulse for a counter-clockwise rotation. How would one differentiate between the widths of the pulses in the interrupt handler?
I have a feeling that I need to set the interrupt to fire and high and low transitions, and use a timer to monitor the length of the pulse. However I have no idea how to set that up on the PIC. Is there any documentation or example code I should be aware of? Can a timer even measure in microseconds?
Thanks in advance,
Robinson

Our team is using a video camera with frame-by-frame analysis to figure out all the characteristics of the foam ball. If the Boeing engineer says it's possible, I'm going to believe him. - sciencenerd [more]
