I had approached pbForth two or three times in the past, always failing to manage what I thought was a steep learning curve. The truth is I probably was too lazy to put the necessary attention into it, or I was in a hurry to program my robots to (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

from my experience it really depends on the application, if you are working on a walker it usually takes a minimum of 1:12 for most of mine, but i don't know waht you are doing. mike "rubbing the weekend out of his eyes" fusion (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics)

That was not a general statement. The X10's quality is poor for indoor lighting. There are several better wireless digital cameras out there that is far better than the X10, but it costs a lot more. Cant beat the $50 I paid for the X10 via ebay (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi, Sorry about that I meant the GP2D12 not GP2D02. The subject line threw me off as the original post was about the D02 not D12... Ram (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, I just got a great deal on a RIS 1.5 but it came without the CD. Is there anything on it that I absolutely need to have in order to use the RIS? I can get the firmware from the mindstorm site right? Do I need any extra stuff in order to (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)

The Lego Cam's quality is much better than the X10 as I have both. The X10 was designed for outdoor only and as such needs a lot of light otherwise the image is dark. The Lego Cam is the same as the quickcam. However, the wireless ability of the X10 (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics)
