  Re: Another DIY sensor
 
(...) Then: (...) Now you tell me!!!! Just after I finished implementing a set of cheap and cheerful nqc fixed point transcendental functions based on 100 RCX degrees per rev! JB (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: The Giant Wheelbot
 
This reminds me of something I was considering building about a year ago, though not out of Lego. (I consider building a lot of things, but nothing ever gets built) I had the idea to build a remote controlled robot completely contained in a sphere. (...)

  Re: any idea if radar can be used with the rcx?
 
(...) Not "radar," but you can couple lights to the drive motors, aim them out front, and use the light-sensor. It will see the reflected light near an object, and react accordingly. On a scout, I make it "avoid light." The thing will get ~ 4 inches (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Clarification of access control
 
I'm curently reading Extreme Mindstorms. In listing 4.2 (see below) the seek task acquires the user defined resource and then enters an inner infinite loop looking for a target. It appears to me that if the seek task losing ownership of the user (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

  Another DIY sensor
 
My continuing journey into the world of DIY RCX sensors has lead me to a home made rotation sensor which may be of interest. Since the RCX light sensor reports values in the range 0 - 100 and my compass sensors are thus constrained to report 0 - 360 (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Turning a robot 90 degrees
 
Hi all, we build a synchrodrive (without turntables) that has a freedom of about 100 degree. We used it in an orthogonal labyrint and it worked well. I'll post a message when our new hompage is available. There will be a detailed howto on this page (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Another Technic Creation
 
(...) Easily - in fact my lego collection is very modest, and positively diminutive compared with some of the pictures and lists of other's collections online. The crane was built mainly from the 8480 Space Shuttle, the 8448 Supercar, and the 8266 (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Any one has 2 rcx's?? can a irda prot in a window based machine help in corol of the RCX?
