To quote the manual:

"The camera image can be processed to yield a resulting value. This value is
a single number which can be used in a variety of ways. The image is
processed as specified in the camera sensor setup area. The resulting values
are stored in the red, blue and yellow Robolab containers [i.e., variables].
These values, which were determined by the computer, are then sent to the
RCX by the IR transmitter. The RCX can then use the updated container values
in the program it is currently running." As a matter of interest you do have
some control over how fast information is sent to the RCX.

The Robolab Vision Center (which processes the image) has several predefined
image processing options (you can create you own using the define sensor
button option) including: Brightness (brightest value), Darkness (darkest
value), BrightLocation (value, x and y coordinates), MotionRow (row value
where motion occurs), MotionColumn (column value where motion occurs),
Blobs1 and Blobs2 (can be used for example to count the number of blobs on a
dice).

I assume the 'manual' is the Robolab Manual.  Is it the upgraded Teachers'
Guide or does ver 2.5 actually come with a manual?

I have used Robolab ver 2.0 for several months.  It is impressive.  But it
needs a manual to help with subvi's and their help screens and other
advanced features.  No-one, so far, seems willing to recommend the Teachers'
Guide as a technical manual.

Can anyone comment on this issue?

Colin, thanks for your well written posts.

It is in fact the "Robolab Getting Started 3 Teacher's Guide." (There is no documentation with the 2.5 upgrade CD). I found it useful for providing an overview of the new features, but it is by no means a technical manual. There are also several (...) (23 years ago, 14-Oct-01, to lugnet.robotics)
