(...) Yes - but these are computers - they can send each other messages in binary - you only need two buttons really. Dunno how a computer could recieve text messages though. Email would be better...but still very slow. (...) You can't generate DTMF (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) There are two .pdf files in the LegoMindstorms 2.5 SDK that have tons of information on the Spybotics. One is the LASM bytecodes and the other gives a ROM overview of the mission system. The SDK can be found at the following link: (URL) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) I like that idea. In fact, I've just recently discovered BimP. I'm working on some NQC ideas as well as missions created through the Spybots program. I must say I'm a bit surprised that there isn't more activity on Spybots since it appears (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

(...) It's even more than that really. Sending live video over IR really isn't feasible - there isn't anywhere near enough bandwidth to do that. What you *REALLY* want is to have enough on-board CPU power in the robot to process the images locally - (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)

I have a cat and a dog (Welsh Terrier) and one of my goals with Lego Robotics is to make a Rover which is fun for my pets. I got a simple idea of how to make the Rover detect a moving object (like a pet). You need RIS, build the Roverbot with the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)

I don't know about other places, but here cell phone service is expensive to use as a robot communication method. Perhaps a "personal radio" (They have a range of about 2 miles) would be better, and data could be transmitted through tones. ----- (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi, I did some research in my free time at the public holidays :-). So the questions do we really need a real multithreading??? In my constructions I never used threads with the same priority, because it doesent make sense to turn on a motor and 20 (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics)
