Do I have to manually frequently read the values from rotation sensors for the count to work, or does the firmware monitor the sensor for me? I have home-brew passive sensors, touch sensors and light sensors working fine, but the rotation sensor is (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Hope this is the correct newsgroup... The URL below is a picture in which some kind of sensor is displayed... The brick is 2*3 studs, and 1 1/3 brick high.

(...) Now things get a little philosophical :) The air tank itself has no idea about vacuum or pressure. The only thing the tank stores is a pressure difference. The difference between the outer pressure and the inner presure. This difference might (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Hello pneumatics fans, I have been working a lot with pneumatics lately, and have made some interesting discoveries. I think the most notable is a method of using the old style red cylinders with the new pneumatics system. I came across this as I (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
