For a pure Lego solution, you could try rigging up something with a rotation sensor that would have the sensor point in the direction of the collision. Suppose the rotation sensor was mounted with it's input shaft pointing up vertically - with a (...) (22 years ago, 16-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

There was discussion of one company that made switches with analog values that could be mixed, but they were apparently either expensive or hard to find (at least there was some difficulty). But simple resistor network, say a load resistor to ground (...) (22 years ago, 16-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm programming the RCX in the leJOS environment and don't like the prospect of downloading the firmware everytime I have to replace batteries. How good and reliable are the solar panels available for the RCX 2.0? Is anybody on the list using an (...) (22 years ago, 15-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics)

Finally, I think I see the point to the 360-degree-all-purpo...-sensor...
