I just made a useful discovery. I have been struggling for some hours
making a reasonably useful yet compact rotation sensor using only the light
sensor and the fiber-optic lights. I was unable to fit this into my
construction. Then I just tried to connect the fiber-optic lights unit to
the sensor-input and to my surprise this works fantastic! When connected to
the a sensor input configured for a light-sensor the unit produces a
reliable series of pulses that are easily counted. The raw value alters
between 1024 and about 500.

| Simen, Great discovery! But like it often happens in Research... you have discovered the discovered. (URL) fact doesn't take away from your independent discovery. That sound cliche but it's true... or least that is what I keep telling myself every (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| (...) Newbie here. Is this "fiber-optic lights unit" the same as the rotation sensor that's now on the Mindstorms page? Has anyone tried turning the light sensor into a rotation sensor by building a shaft encoder? Face the light sensor into a (...) (25 years ago, 30-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics)
