I have the following ideas on my plate:
1) Build a unique robot (possibly a next generation DominoBot) with hopes that
it may become one of the standard models that can be built with whatever they
call the new "Constructopedia". Reference - I did this a few years back with
DominoBot in Syngres' book "10 Cool Lego Mindstorms: Ultimate Builders Projects"
where myself and other author's built robots, instructions and descriptions for
each of our robots, but had to do so within the limits of the parts from the RIS
2.0 and the UBS sets.
2) Having an interest in Bluetooth and .NET Compact Framework programming
experience, I want to inteface a Windows Mobile PDA with the NXT unit. ...and a
Bluetooth GPS will be part of this as well. (That is all I will say for now.)
3) I have built several robots that use 3rd party sensors and will be interested
in doing the same with NXT.
My site is my dedication to Lego Mindstorms - all my robots and descriptions are
there - www.astolfo.com
Good luck to all. Fingers crossed!
Dave
