Could you please keep posting to this list to be somewhat related to Mindstorms? I subscribe to this list to get Lego mindstorm info, and not your political views. I'm sure there is a proper place somewhere for these types of posts, please post them (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Interesting and tough words, however, this is the same mentality that England had in the days when people like Robin Hood had to be the "social programs". If you eliminate government, after having a democracy for so long, it would be a disaster. I (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Well, I only have one thing to say. I have as many complaints with the US as the rest of you, BUT, to borrow from Richard Feynman, don't bother to criticize if you don't have an alternative solution to offer. Do something, don't sit around and talk (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I believe that in this case, you should use a light sensor looking at a wheel that's white with a black line marked on it. The software for reading this is identical to what you would use for line following (a very well researched topic!) - (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) In 'The LEGO Lugger', previously posted at (URL) the extended drive shafts for both sides of a tracked vehicle, moving in opposite directions, are summed in a differential with the difference (hopefully zero)fed to the rotation sensor. Because (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Thanks for that, Dave. As more non-LEGO (aftermarket) devices come out I wish there were more reviews. It's one thing to read the specs and quite another to read about a successful project using the part, stating its effective range, saying (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) The earlier RIS sets included a parts list. You can verify against that list. LEGO has a very good reputation for correcting this type of problem via their customer service line. Don't know what that is in Switzerland, though. (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hello together, I bought an RIS2.0 kit at christmas. I have the feeling, that I may have a missing part. I am missing the 4th tire, which is for example needed for the the Acrobot (the biggest tire). Has anybody experienced something like this? Is (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Americans? Americans would have to live in America. But the America I remember is gone. The one that helped Europe and Japan up out of the rubble of W.W.II. The big Dam projects. The interstate Highway system, communication, electrification, stuff (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi all, Not sure if there is a better place for sensor reviews, but I figured that Robotics would be a good start. Forgive me if I posted to the incorrect place. I have completed my review of the TechnoStuff Dual Infra-Red Proximity Detector (DIRPD) (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
