  NXT-G print to text?
 
In Robolab, one could print to file and read the program methods in text. Is there an equivalent in NXT-G? One of my students has this enormous NXT-G program that is hanging up every workstation we try to debug it in. It has about a dozen loops and (...) (16 years ago, 10-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
 
  Re: Bluetooth quirks
 
(...) To answer the question, we're using NXT-G. But that was last week's summer camp. This week seems to take 3 pairs of Bluetooth battlebots just fine. (16 years ago, 10-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

  Re: question on mindstorm capabilities for competition
 
Hi all, Just wanted to follow up on this! It turns out that Tim (the 10y/o) has a next door neighbor with a complete RCX mindstorm kit with tons of extras from being in a lego robotics club in the past. The neighbor was nice enough to give us all of (...) (16 years ago, 9-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

If he didn't discover the technique himself, he at least documented it. :) I haven't seen a lot of modules (...) (16 years ago, 8-Jul-08, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: question on mindstorm capabilities for competition
 
(...) Hi George, NXT will do this fine, however you might want to try two light sensors (1 more than in the Retail Kit) Otherwise you might not be able to tell going off line and a break in the line!

  Bluetooth quirks
 
I've just re-read Sivan Toledo's "Analysis of the NXT Bluetooth Communication Protocol" tacked on the main lugnet.robotics.nxt main page.

  Re: AW: Assembly line feeding system
 
GBC module creators tend to independently reinvent the same hopper solutions used in factories. Some of them shake, many of them have an agitator spinning inside it to loosen the pieces, but the simplest just use gravity and a change of direction. (...)

  Re: question on mindstorm capabilities for competition
 
George, I think the NXT would be an excellent way to get your son involved in robotics. And, it should do just fine in that competition. That's pretty much what it was designed for. Don't worry about a lack of experience with Mindstorms. I'm sure (...) (16 years ago, 30-Jun-08, to lugnet.robotics)

  Assembly line feeding system
 
What I'm trying to do is inspired by the feeding mechanism of (URL) trying to feed 1x1 plates into an assembly line. I've built several hoppers to hold a few hundred pieces each.
