 | | constructing a new network protocol for LegOS
|
|
Hi! We're a group from Aalborg University who are about to design and implement a new network protocol for LegOS. The protocol should be able to communicate via cables from the I/O ports and also via the IR port. It should be possible to address (...) (23 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

You need to look up pbForth (or is it pBrick?) and NQC. Those are two languages for the rcx that have variables -- specifically math, as I'm not sure if there are strings for the RCX. But I digress, those have variables. My guess, and I am taking a (...) (23 years ago, 24-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)
