Is there a difference between a cybermaster touch switche &
the RIS touch sensor?

Yes, the cybermaster touch sensors have resistors in
parallel to the switch, while the RIS touch sensor doesn't.
The cybermaster uses the resistors to find out which touch
sensor is connected to which switch.  If you put them in
_series_ and use raw mode you can have three distinguishable
touch sensors on one input of the RCX.

(...) Cool. If you connect one sensor to each input on the RCX it can be programmed to figure out what goes where itself. Excelent for modular robots with a switch type 1 in an arm, type 2 in a bumper and so on. The robot can figure out itself how (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics)
