hi Fred,
I would love to see a reaction from you on the discussion in this thread
in lugnet.robotics.
Not only because you're the inventor of the RCX but also you've done
some some similar things, creating modular, stackable electronics with
the aim to let non-technician (or less-technician) be able to construct
"working things".
I'll hope we hear from you,
best regards,
Stef Mientki

The subject of this post is intended as an invitation to anyone who would
like to contribute their ideas, wants, wishes, desires for a new direction
for managing a microcomputer controlled Lego creation. As far as I see it
there are only two real candidate architectures, modular and monolithic. I
regard the RCX as a monolithic structure in the sense that is the entire
core entity into which you plug motors and sensors. A modular approach, in
this context, would split that monolithic central "thing" into a number of
constituent entities, like power source, CPU, memory, sound making devices,
displays etc etc.

almost ready concept:

| All: I think the project that I am working, called RoboBricks, on is quite relevant to this topic. Since this is my first post to this group, I should introduce myself as a very active member of the Home Brew Robitics Club based out of San Jose, (...) (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics)
