One could build something like an interface, that feeds (external) power into
the light sensor, in the way the rcx does, takes the output voltage, and then
provides the signal to the cybermaster using some sample & hold amplifier !

One other way would be building a new light sensor with external power supply...

Anyone know how the sensors are sampled? Would it be possible to power the
sensor from the third motor drive output and synchronise turning off the
power just before the sensor is actually sampled? Just a thought...



See  http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Michael_Gasperi/lego.htm for
details on how the RCXsensors are sampled.  I don't think you could recreate
the RCX function because you probably don't have anyway to know when a
Cybermaster is going to sample it's input.
