  Re: Home-made One-way valve

You say it is not possible to use an air tank in the old style circuit, but would it work with two air tanks, one on the high pressure hose and the other on the vaccuum hose, between the pneumatic "diode" and valve?

Both of the below fragments work as expectd: #1 if ((SensorValueRaw(1) & SensorValueRaw(0)) != 255) #2 if ((SensorValueRaw(1) != 255) || (SensorValueRaw(0) != 255)) (...)

  How to read the touch sensors on the Scout in NQC?

I want to implement a bumper checking task but no matter how I (...) (24 years ago, 16-Dec-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc, lugnet.robotics.scout)
