Something worth checking may be "Dick Smith Electronics" down here in little old New Zealand (please remove the line wrap): (URL) if they ship offshore, but they're doing RIS1.5 for NZ$399. Our crap currency only buys US$0.40, so that works out at (...) (25 years ago, 19-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Oh, and I forgot to mention, you won't get rotation out of a PS/2 interface. It does (primarily) +x, +y, and however many button events. (25 years ago, 19-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Shawn: What are the technical limitations associated with doing this with legOS 0.2.x? I'd love to put something similar (but more up to date) on the legOS.sourceforge.net site (or, more likely, tieguy.org/legos due to quotas at sourceforge) but I'm (...)

I am looking for the lowest priced RIS 1.5 kit. I was wondering if anyone knew of someplace online that is selling it for cheaper than $200. I have heard that it sells for around $150 or $160 at some site, but do not know where. Any help is (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)

Radar tends to overkill for most Lego applications. (Large and expensive) I have a couple of infra-red based detectors on the web page below, that are built into a standard 2x4 bump brick.

I forgot to mention that two optical mice are needed for accurate navigation. With only one sensor you cannot track if the robot turns. I think it’s a good idea to buy a optical mouse because I haven’t seen any suppliers carrying the HD2000 chip. If (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-00, to lugnet.robotics)
