 | | Has anyone figured out how to improve the NXT light sensor?
|
|
I'm looking for ways to build this sensor into a studless beam project of mine, and I was wondering, given it's large size and the comparative brightness of the LED used to light it, how can I use it to detect if an object is blocking a path? (...) (19 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) About a year ago, I got involved in doing some hacking on the Sony PSP, and wrote a Windows utility that will rip any font at a chosen size as a bitmapped C array. If I can figure out which computer I left the sources on, I'll make it (...) (19 years ago, 16-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, FTX)

(...) Now that's a cool idea. I've been messing around with remote-controlling the NXT via Bluetooth from a PC application, and it seems pretty solid. You'd definitely have some timing issues running a remote emulation like you describe, but this (...) (19 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Did you say you're using the bluetooth commands from Labview? I thought it had different motor blocks. I'll have to look again. Steve (19 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi. I've recently bought a notebook with integrated bluetooth, and of course connecting to the NXT was the first thing I did with it, and it worked like a charm. After that I used it to upload some videos to my phone, but before that I had to go (...) (19 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics)

The "motor unlimited" is designed to set the motor to run an unlimited distance. It's just a "turn motor on" type block. I think you want the "Motor Degrees" block, or something like that, don't you? (sorry, I don't have access to LV right now) (...) (19 years ago, 15-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If this limitation had applied to the rcx, I'd have suggested this. Because you can control the outputs and read the inputs direct from a pc you could run an emulation of the rcx firmware running your program on the pc. The rcx would then (...)
