  Mindstorms RIS 2.0??
 
Anyone see any rumors about when RIS 2.0 might be hitting the shelves? (25 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

rch8 There is no need to apologize as everyone could has his own view. Of course, I understand that you do not have any bad intention. And I believe that there is no "bad" people in our Lego playing groups. Thanks anyway. Yiu (...) (25 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re:AI in RCX (from proposer)
 
Ok! I should NOT have said that programming neural-networks on the RCX is impossible, and that the only way is to use the PC. And to Yiu, I would like to say that I had no intention of detering you from this project. I agree completely with Andy (...) (25 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Dear All (...) Yes, that's why I ask for your advice and help. (...) ultra-sonic sensors, so you would need to provide these yourself. The ultra-sonic sensors are already ready (Thanks to JB).

  Re: AI in RCX
 
I think that you should not immediately discount the idea of nueral networks in the RCX. Bert van Dam has done amazing stuff with networks on the RCX, and using no PC code. The point of the RCX is to try, learn, and invernt, not to say that it is (...) (25 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Motorized VC cam focusing
 
If you are willing to give up a half of a large turntable, you could glue the large geared half to the rubber on the camera and drive the gear with a motor on top of the camera. A 26t gear will mesh with a gear head motor on top, but it is a bit (...) (25 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: How2 'count' in NQC
 
I want to thank everyone who helped with the double problem of switch de-bouncing and that loops can often count continuously while the switch is in actuation. There were good suggestions about removing delays from the code and 'counting' upon (...) (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: MOC: Radio Controlled Tank.
 
Tobbe, This is a nice looking model, especially with all the functions. As to more traction, you could use alternating regular chain links and tread links and mount a 1x4 plate on each tread link, studs out. I'm not sure how realistic this would (...)

  Re: AI on RCX - oops
 
I forgot to metion.. a very good, and practical book on Neural Networks is "Machine Learning" by Tom M. Mitchell (1997). Includes theory and examples. But working with Finite State Machines is a much more reasonable starting point for RCX. rama (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: AI in RCX
 
You picked a challenging project. It is not possible for the RCX to do Neural Networks alone, since the RCX does not have the command set, and is not a fast enough processor to calculate the weights of the Neural Network. Also, the RCX doesn't have (...) (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Motorized VC cam focusing
 
(...) Well i havent tried anything myself but i think the most effective way would be to use a tire in contact with the lens. You've probably tried that already, but it was the first thing that came to mind. hope it helps. (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Motorized VC cam focusing
 
Hi, I wonder if anybody has succeeded in building a motorized focus controller for the Vision Command cam. So far I have tried several ideas but none was very effective. I am looking for better ideas. Jan (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  AI in RCX
 
I want to program AI into RCX that can avoid objects by the readings of 3 three ultra-sonic sensors. I am supposed to use Neural Network. But I difficult as the programming is limited by the RCX (even RCX 2.0 is used) Would you be kind enough to (...) (25 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
