Several people have sent me e-mail questions about my post on RoboLab 2.5.
I'll try and answer them in this follow-up.
1. The RoboLab 2.5 software is documented at the following URL:
http://www.pldstore.com/pitsco2_30/catalog.cfm?dest=itempg&itemid=1007&secid=9&linkon=subsection&linkid=45
This URL is for the full release which costs $59 (part number F900054). The
upgrade for existing Robolab users is $25 and has a part number of F990665.
2. Robolab 2.5 suppport both the serial and USB towers. It supports both PC
and Mac platforms.
3. The USB tower has a part number of F979783 and costs $29.
3. No I cannot send you a copy of RoboLab 2.5 since it is licensed software.

| (...) The LEGO Movie Camera can be used as a 'sensor'. I wonder what that means. What would ROBOLAB sense on... brightness, colour, presence of an object in view...? Has anyone used this feature? Jerry (25 years ago, 13-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics)
