(...) You might try this: stand two mirrors on edge at 90 deg to one another. This creates a corner reflector which will reflect light back in the direction from which it came. Have the robot first search for this reflection and then move toward the (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) You left out PRIMO (aka BABY). These are aimed specifically at the 0 - 2 age group. They connect with DUPLO on the bottom and a few speciallized pices connect with DUPLO on the top to allow a transition from one product line to another. The (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I can't see this making much sense. It would be soooo much cheaper for TLC to send stickers out to the stores to be applied to the 1.5 boxes. These stickers could direct customers to Lego Customer Service to obtain a free replacement CD if the (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) There must be something terribly wrong if you couldn't get it to go over a couple of meters. RS-232's maximum cable length depends on the baud rate - at 9600, it's good for about 500 meters IIRC. The tower comms is about 1200? 2400? You (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Having seen other posts on the scarcity of the 1.5 kit, I thought I read that the 1.5 kits were being taken back by Lego to be re-used for the 2.0 kit. As others have said, not much of an update between 1.5 and 2.0 - mainly the software. Is (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) If there is no way to free an input port for a light sensor you can try other ways with IR. You could use a PC to send messages to the RCX "turn left", "turn right", "slow" and so on. Now the problem is, how does your PC know which direction (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics)
