 | | Connect Galvanometer to a NXT motor port
|
|
I would like to be able to connect a Galvanometer to the NXT. Using this galvanometer with the ultrasound sensor attached one could get a wide angular "look" of any obstacles within one snapshot in time. Essentially creating a "radar". The other use (...)
