Ho chiesto alla Meetedison - segnalata da
pusillus - perche' hanno utilizzato l'interfaccia audio invece della USB per la programmazione del robot.
Anche se la risposta e' una email privata credo di poterla pubblicare qui sotto.
C'e' un'altra domanda che non ho fatto (e che faccio a voi)
Dalle FAQ (
https://meetedison.com/edison-robot-sup ... robot-faq/):
What types of batteries can be used in Edison?
Edison takes four AAA batteries.
If using disposable batteries with Edison, only ever use alkaline batteries. (These are the most common AAA batteries you will find in just about any shop.) If you are using rechargeable batteries with Edison, only use nickel metal hydride (NiMH) rechargeable batteries. Never use heavy-duty, super heavy-duty or carbon zinc batteries.
Perche' - secondo voi -
non si possono usare le batterie heavy-duty, super heavy-duty or carbon zinc?

Hi xxxxx,
Thank you for contacting Team Edison. My name is Adrian and I will help you with your query.
At least one major reason for this decision is because Edison is designed for the classroom, and there are two ways programming through an audio port can be easier in the classroom:
1. Programming through the audio port requires no drivers to be installed, which means no administrator privileges are required, which can simplify getting set up.
2. Also, the audio port is more common than USB across low cost devices commonly used in classrooms, (and works the same regardless of operating system, without requiring drivers), so by using the audio port Edison can be used in classrooms that use iPads, other compatible tablets, and Chromebooks, as well as Windows, Mac and Linux devices.
I hope that answers your question! If you have any others, let me know.
