I think that Technic parts constitute a very comprehensive "mechanical
prototyping" system. You can go through 100 alternate robot structural
designs in the time it'd take you to try one in a machine shop!
I have already investigated a number of alternate architectures for control
processors for integration with Technic parts. When I have something that
may be of general interest, I'll be sure and mention it here on lugnet.
The only thing I don't quite understand in the comment from the previous
post was the use of the word "custom". Isn't the RCX a custom Lego
processor? What isn't custom?
