  RE: Ping-Pong Ball Shooter
 
(...) Sounds like a fun project... (...) What about a series of drive wheels each set geared at increasing RPMs? You could use two wheels per stage opposite of each other to squeeze the ball through and accelerate it since the ball is so light. An (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  RE: TpForth Project ?
 
(...) The basic problem, Mark, is time. I just don't have the time to properly support a compiler for three platforms. I can barely keep up with the demands pbForth makes of my spare time.

  Re: Idea for LARGE Star Wars sets

  Re: Not surprised or disappointed

  Re: Multitasking
 
From: "David Leeper" <david.leeper@destiny.com> (...) night (...) Cruise and avoid is a pretty simple type of program, and multitasking really isn't necessary.

  Re: SFX?
 
Actually, a magnet and reed switch would be more reliable than a touch sensor. Or maybe use an optical sensor. I'm not into train cars and such, but I'd be happy to contribute some motorized RCX-controlled scenery. The RCX remote control makes it (...) (25 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.sf)
 
  Re: Two new LEGO pages
 
Thomas, your movies are spectacular! I was laughing so hard at the UFO one that several of my cow-orkers came over to see what was the matter. Since they're all LEGO fans, too, they enjoyed the movies as well. I also am impressed by your Crossbots! (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.general)

Sorry for being off-topic ... I'm not sure they're currently airing in the U.S. (although they're probably available on Satellite). You can get just over half of the episodes via Columbia House's RE-TV monthly shipments; for some reason (I think (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Two new LEGO pages
 
(...) Tell me about it... :} The big problem with getting a slower walk is that minifigs have a very limited range of motion.

  Re: NQC 2.1 b2 in beta test
 
(...) I think NQC should be strictly a compiler. It seems like it would be more manageable for both developers and users if the RCX communication pieces were in a separate executable.

  RE: Ping-Pong Ball Shooter
 
All the commercial ball shooters that I have seen use either a pair of spinning wheels, or a launching tube with a blast of air. I believe the air blast works better with lighter balls. The spinning wheels setup works best if the wheels and/or the (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.robotics)
