| | Re: Synchro drive in Lego
|

Assuming I have got the design spec right (ie, a wheel which can turn 360+ degrees and drive independently), I have managed to build one from just the Mindstorms bits.

| | Voltage generator
|
|
I discovered something that I can see no use for but maybe someone else can. If you connect the two power wires together from two motors and spin one motor, the other motor spins! The first is obviously generating DC voltage in proportion to speed. (...) (27 years ago, 16-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
