So, please tell me what else the RCX needs and what other sensors would be
good to have. I’ll still take mechanical improvements, too. Thanks.
|
As far as the RCX goes and in concert with most other respondees, more
resources are really what’s needed. In order of importance to me, I think I/O
followed by memory capacity followed by CPU speed would do it for me.
|
I can see the need for more I/O from the RCX, but I really don’t understand why
everyone thinks it needs more memory and CPU speed.
I’m interested to hear about any projects that people have attempted which
required more of either.

In general I'd say with more memory and speed you can program more "high-level", and build more intelligent robots. As for a new RCX version I'd say (...) (21 years ago, 6-Nov-03, to lugnet.robotics)
