That could EASILY consume all 256Kb of flash - and the image itself (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

Steve, What you need to do is to make a dongle for your laptop PC with 8G DRAM, a 1 terabyte hard disk, that gives you an infinite number of LEGO NXT compatible motor ports and sensor ports. You will probably have to drill a few technic pin (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | | | hi Kevin -- I think you missed my point. I accept NXT's limitations. What I'm saying is, we *can* do the sorts of things I outline, with the platform as given, if we get enough developers interested in contributing. I was going to post this anyway, (...)

If the CPU were to be crippled by executing from a SD memory (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)

There is certainly a huge difference - but given that the NXT has RAM and 'broad-side' Flash on-chip, the bulk of the flash only has to function as backing storage...like a disk drive. (...) You can page executable stuff into RAM as needed. (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jan-06, to lugnet.robotics)
