Hi Everyone, I have finally gotten around to finishing a LUGNET web page on my SteerBot, the same robot you saw at the first SMART meeting back in January. Take a look and let me know what you think. (URL) Gus (24 years ago, 15-Mar-01, to lugnet.org.us.smart) !

Does anyone have a Mindstorms they might want to sell for less than it's weight in Gold? I thought I had a deal for one online, but it has fallen thru, so I am hoping for mercy from my fellow LUGNET members... I am in Seattle, but will gladly pay (...)

We had our first SMART meeting at the Bellevue Public Library on Sunday. The turnout was amazing; approximately 35 people showed up!

When I went to the SRS meeting back in December, I talked to someone about using RCXCC (RCX Command Center) and the latest version of NQC. As many people who have used RCXCC knows, it is a great IDE but it's latest version available does not support (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.smart)

Hi Dennis, I have not tried LeJos but if you do get it to work I would love to hear how well it works. I looked at the web site for it and it seems to be a rather feature rich language. It even supports floating point math! My biggest concern is how (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jan-01, to lugnet.org.us.smart)

Hi all, I've been an NQC user for a couple years now. Now I want to "move up" so to speak and I'm looking at LeJos. Has anyone gotten this to fly and what are the steps to getting it to go?

For SMART meetings, the mini-challenge events should always be very simple to state. As a rough guideline when thinking of one, see if you can keep it under 40 words, with at most one diagram to explain the challenge. This makes the rules general (...)
