No, a
multiplexer doesn't combine signals. A multiplexer simple allows one signal to
pass while blocking another (simply said).For a complex robot like that, I would
most likely use digital transmission. Use some sort of high speed transmission
protocol. Maybe a LVDS ? You sending on RF or on cables ?

I want to make a complex robot. To keep it
simple right now I just want the
robot to send video, temperature, and
altitude. Maybe even some other things
later on. I was thinking I can go
digital or analog. When would you use
digital or analog? I would think that
analog would be easier because all the
sensors and video would be in
analog. But yet isn't it true that digital
would be much simpler for
manipulating the many signals? The easy part is
getting the sensors and
video to work, and then sending their signals to
another device. Doesn't a
multiplexor combine signals? Is there anything
else that combines signals
that I might want to use? What I will send to the
robot will be control
signals for servo's and such.
I know I'm going to need to do studying
to learn what I want to do. I just
finished reading two very basic
electronics books. The books were Getting
Started in Electronics and Basic
Electronics. Both are Radio Shack books.
What should I read now to help me
reach the goal that I currently want
to
achieve?

First of all keep in mind I'm a
beginner. I would appreciate the groups help
in directing me for my
project. This is something I have always wanted to
learn how to do. I think
I want to make a carreer out of it.
From point A, I want to be able to
take a video signal and other signals,
combine them into one, then send
them out via radio. Then from point B
receive them, decode the signal, and
use the video and other signals, for
whatever purposes I need. I also need
to be able, from point B, to combine
other signals minus video this time,
and send them via radio to point A, and
at point A decode those signals and
use them.
I can see many steps and components involved in getting this
to work, and
would highly appreciate the groups
help.
