Has anyone got routines for robobasic to make the robot type?

ie. you sit your robo in front of a standard keyborard and get it to type out preset text.

Lets say you get your robo to type out your home page for the person you are showing it to. now thats a good calling card. Make your robo type via bluetooth and palm.

I once did an (aborted) comedy video of my Robonova pretending to type. Hiveminds robot can write, though, and he's working on code to make it write sentences on a vertical whiteboard - aren't you, Hive?!! :)

I have seen Hivemind in action on some of the vids, very impressive.

It cant be that hard to make a routine up for each key press then a control routine that can call the move for a key routine!

Send text from a bluetooth device and Robonova types it!

Were going to need some higher speed servos to get to 100 words per minute though.

Still a work in progress, havent had a lot of time lately, but it will get done soon hopefully :) then I'll have to work on the hundred words per minute.. but come on, i have a word every 20 seconds, so how hard is about three hundred fold? :)
