(...) Hi Jonathon, It is possible to build a differential using the NXT parts. It is a bit big, but I have seen it done. I've not used this to make a car, but in general, I don't find three or more wheels interesting. Go for it. It is quite possible (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)

Hello, I'm just getting started with NXT and was wondering if anyone has successfully built a car-type robot. By this I mean a robot that uses one motor to drive the rear wheels and one motor to operate the front steering. The NXT kit does not (...) (19 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) These would be very nice to have, but they cannot be integrated into NXT-G unless you modify the compiler (which we can't!). NBC/NXC can benefit from such improvements, of course. I think there are many improvements which WOULD make a (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi all, I doubt this will go through, as I've never been able to post anything to this group yet... I know that the group of us working on the Transterpreter[1] are actively interested in collaborating on such an effort. While the kinds of (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

This is for NXT-G Block programmers: I've written some description how one can use one terminal for multiple purposes, and dynamically change it's front panel and tooltip text. See details, and download VIs needed here: (URL) Ziv NXTasy.org (19 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Thanks Dick, I also found info on how arrays are handled in the Executable File Spec. I didn't see it before. My cut on this is that I will use single-dimension arrays in non-time-critical areas and avoid mult-dimensional arrays alltogether. It (...) (19 years ago, 6-Jan-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
