Hi andrew,

Would it be possible to create a Lego swarm? What language

I think the best option would be to get a couple of Spybots,
because they can sense the approximate position of each other
and are quite cheap nowadays.  They can be programmed in NQC.

(...) Thanks, but I was asking because the school has hundreds of RCX's , motors, and sensors. I had in mind a RCX-based swarm, possibly linking together to cross a table gap, or some similar task. Thanks for the input, though. Andrew Meyer (19 years ago, 12-May-05, to lugnet.robotics)
