| I've offered a similar sentiment about both Technic and Mindstorms on this list. Folks have routinely said "Nah, you're too pessimistic!" but like you, I think the proof is on store shelves today (or, rather, NOT on store shelves). It appears to me (...)

What if they released a 'bare bones' set that contained one touch sensor, RCX, two motors, and enough parts to make the Acrobot? Could they price that under (...)

| | Re: Proximity detection?
|
| Thanks for the reply, André. I've read that the IR emitters are "low-power". Does this mean the red LED on Spybot would have a longer range than the IR emitters if used in proximity detection? Since the LED is recessed, I guess is would have a (...) (22 years ago, 20-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)
