(...) Wow Brian, that looks cool. I never thought of making a NXT boat. If I did I would probably not let go anywhere much other than a bath tub, it's pretty brave to take it out somewhere. I'd be worried about recovering the craft if the batteries (...) (17 years ago, 13-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Nicely done! Next I wanna see an autonomous NXT controlled sail boat ;) Actually, the name would probably suit a sail boat more... (...) Nope can't waste time on that when you have a sail-boat to build! ROSCO (17 years ago, 12-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Claude, thanks for the encouragement. I remember exchanging notes with you on pbForth, and I'll bet your students are as bright as ever.

Well, I blogged about it, and wanted to make sure I shared it with the folks that inspired me (LUGNET). I've never been really interested in LEGO boats, because in the first place I couldn't see much use for them (guiding a robot over featureless (...) (17 years ago, 12-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics) !

All of you that have been helping to test pbLua.... I have released another Beta of pbLua - and it's got FLASH writing (and reading) goodness in it. (URL) It does not yet have the ability to boot from a string in FLASH but it's very close. The (...) (17 years ago, 12-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) The 15 ms that John reported is the time it takes for a sound pulse to travel 500 mm, the round trip distance at the maximum advertised range of the US sensor. An interesting coincidence? Roger Glassey (17 years ago, 11-Sep-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
