(...) I too would have tried LegOS if installing it were not so much like the more tedious computing chores I have to do at work everyday. Is there something intrinstically wrong with distributing binaries that will run on the most common platforms? (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

 | | Make a goal by the IR port on RCX
|
|
I am working on a robotic assignment with RCX by legOS. It is a small RCX vehicle that move around. I want to add a goal for this vehicle. Say, move towards a certain direction. However, all the 3 sensors port had been used up for some purpose. So I (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) They are just product lines - and they all work together. Basic - Just bricks...LOTS of bricks. Technics - is regular Lego 'bricks' with the addition of gears and beams with holes and stuff - but no computers or sensors - and very few (if any) (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi there, I maid have some stupid questions (even if there is no such thing, only stupid answers exist), but I want to start my search of knowledge from the very beginning. I just ordered a RIS 1.5 and can't wait until I get it. I'm completely new (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Some years back a couple of guys at work made a double inverted pendulum, which is like balancing another pencil on top of the pencil on your finger, though it worked in only one dimension. I don't know too much about it, except that they had (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Hey good points! What if one took the motor driven pendulum idea and applied it to a gyro to produce torue counteracting the tilt from stepping forward? Good point about the distance to ground being nil for detectability, expecially if you want to (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

Excellent idea ! Has anyone tried to add an I2C interface to a u-scout ? My u-Scout just sits on the shelf... Hmmm. I'd be wiling to sacrifice it in the name of science if some one could give me some pointers : ) -Xanthra47 "Steve Baker" (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)
