Hello all, I have been lurking for a while, and tried doing a little searching on the net, and have not seen this anywhere. Is it possible to use more then 3 standard lego light sensors at a time? I have seen that there are configurations for (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Yeah - actually programming is what I do for a living, in a combination of perl, java, C++ and anything else they care to throw in my direction. I actually found the visual lego programming surprisingly entertaining and powerful and it was a (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

You mean USB, although the small packet size and generally unreliable nature of the IR connection makes it seem like UDP sometimes :-) I just spent the best afternoon I've spent in a long time trying to make my lego robot follow wells *well*.

NQC may work with Windows 3.xx if Win32s is installed. When I figure out where I put that old 3.xx machine or two, I'll try it out. If the computer has MS DOS on it, then QBASIC is probably there as well. One could always use that. There are several (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm in the process of "reviving" past inventions with my new knowledge of legOS. One such invention (if you can call it that) used 3 12V relay switches to control external circuits. Full power on the outputs would trigger the relays. however, under (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Very nice design. I don't have access to old style pneumatic cylinders, but was thinking of doing something similar with the new double acting cylinders. Because I don't have a check valve in the new pneumatics that would allow me to store vacuum, I (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Very cool. Should be able to do it with two motors. I wonder how he sync's the left and right feet. It doesn't look like any sensors are used, or am I missing the wires? I am inspired. P.S. I was also inspired by hammerhead. Since I only had the 9v (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build)
