| | | (...) You could probably do that - but you'd have to write RCX software to decode the pulse-width modulated signals from the radio control system. If you can write good software then that might be possible with something like the LegOS firmware - (...) (22 years ago, 31-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | (...) I have actually created a similar device, and am in the testing phase now. It connects to your RC receiver, and then outputs the IR commands to the RCX to drive the motors. It effectively works just like the IR remote for driving the 3 (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)

And also it would be nice to send "suggestions" to a mostly autonymous robot. And sometimes, you just (...) (22 years ago, 1-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics)
