2016-06-08 12:44:39 -0500 | commented answer | How can I power a kinect using the iRobot Create 2 base? (Turtlebot) This sounds like a good idea. Why did you solder your own 7 pin connector if the cable shipped with the create already has one? Also, do you recommend a voltage regulator with a switch? I don't want my kinect eating away my robot's battery. |

2016-06-06 16:07:15 -0500 | asked a question | How can I power a kinect using the iRobot Create 2 base? (Turtlebot) Hey everyone! I'm creating a turtlebot from scratch. I have an iRobot Create 2, a kinect sensor (and all its cables), and an acer netbook. How do I provide 12V power to the kinect using the create 2? I saw a lot of tutorials online and they say to use the serial port on the create 2 base. However, if I do this, then how do I connect the create 2 to my netbook? Currently I am using the serial to USB cable to connect the irobot to my netbook. Is there a way to splice this cable and use it for powering the kinect? Or will I need an external 12V battery? Thanks! I'm relatively new to electronics, so any help is appreciated! |
