 | | Mindstorms 3.0 Wish List
|
| I'm giving a presentation about Mindstorms on Wednesday. I have a slide near the end that talks about all the stuff I know people want to see added. Here's what I have so far: RCX === RC communication (but keep the IR port, too) more I/O ports (...)

| Here is the perfect idea: Basicly, the new RCX comes with several components: 1.sensors, motors and so on as now (perhaps with some new ones) 2.a large "base unit" that would have a good CPU, communication with the host PC for programming, LCD (...) (21 years ago, 6-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)

| Mark, The Spybots are very useful as long as you treat them like Spybots--interactive, mission-oriented robots. They are less useful for general robotics. Quite useful for remote control vehicles, especially if they need a dash of intelligence. The (...) (21 years ago, 19-Jul-03, to lugnet.org.us.indylug)

| | Re: replacement for IR-communication
|
| We have done this. That is retro-fitted an RCX with a bluetooth module. It involves hardware hacking the RCX, which will "void the warranty". Don't do it unless you can afford to completely break your RCX, and can afford a spare! Can I ask, are you (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics)

| Hi everyone, I did take a look at LNP, but I need to be sure that the RCX received the packet. As far as I Know, LNP is an UDP kind of communication. LLC is more reliable way to communicate as it uses ACK. I’m thinking know in recompile the RCXPort (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
