that) but I still gotta find an easy way to get the inputs in there in the
first place...

| With 3 touch sensors = 3 "bits" = 1+7 possible states/combinations 000 = none pressed 001 = 1 pressed 010 = 2 pressed 011 = 1+2 pressed 100 = 3 pressed 101 = 1+3 pressed 110 = 2+3 pressed 111 = 1+2+3 pressed or you can use a rotation/angle sensor as (...)

| You could also use the Mindstorms Remote Control, which can send Messages 1, 2 and 3. As with touch sensors, you need to use a combination of messages to create 6 separate inputs. (I recall an old thread on this exploring many encoding schemes.) (...) (21 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.robotics)
