If you want to free up your rotation sensor and only have a need to count rotations (as in this application) you might want to try my Touch Sensor Rotation Counter (inspired by Laurentino Martins' design).

| | Re: Decoding the LEGO IR remote control
|
|
In light of the underwhelming lack of response to my LEGO IR post, maybe I need to clarify a little: The RCX tower and the LEGO remote control (#9738) both transmit a 38kHz carrier which is modulated at a 2400bps rate. The encoding is 8 data bits, (...) (25 years ago, 17-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Is anyone out there working on the more functional version of the 4212 10 x 4 x 2/3 car base, as used in #6390 Main Street? If so or if not, I could use some help with mine.
