(...) It turns out to be the egcs 1.1.2 I compiled; the RPMs from sourceforge work fine. I'll try to find why my compiler was buggy... Thanks for your reply. Eric (23 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | General IR question
|
|
In general, what's the difference between the IR "signal" that the tower and RCX use to communicate and the IR energy used in thermal imaging? Is it just a matter of frequency? If the RCX was pointed at an IR camera, what what would it see? -- Dan (...) (23 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)

2 ways that have worked for me, both using the long range IR mode: 1) Point the RCX's IR Port at the ceiling and your IR Transmitter/ reciever unit at the ceiling and bounce the signals off your ceiling. I have vaulted ceilings painted white and get (...) (23 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm curious to know if anyone has expanded the communication of the infrared on the RCX brick to a point where it could be interacted with on a 360 degree scale. Somewhat like a radio frequency although the communication does not require going (...) (23 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)
