|
I am pleased to announce that I have posted a beta of a command line compiler for a new programming language for the LEGO Mindstorms NXT programmable brick called Next Byte Codes (NBC). NBC is modelled after traditional assembly language. It is (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.robotics)

(...) relative. As you suggested, if you turn off the NXT, it will loose track of it's current location. Steve (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

(...) I have a question about the encoders on the NXT motor. I read that they're supposed to report the shaft position to within 1 degree. But looking at the encoder wheel actually inside the device, I don't see how that can be. It looks to me like (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics, FTX)

(...) Hey Ross, With bluetooth built in, there is no real need for any other kind of brick to brick communication to be investigated. Bluetooth is a professional strength protocol with all the necessary networking features. Since it uses gobs of (...) (20 years ago, 3-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) What about multiple NXTs? How well does Bluetooth handle message collisions? Does the NXT have anything built-in to handle them, or would I need to program some kind of re-try protocol? I assume it also has no built-in addressing protocol? (...) (20 years ago, 2-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Yep. I'm not at all sure about hardwiring two NXT's together - to be honest, I've not even thought about it, because BT connections are so easy and secure. Early on I investigated the BT option by sending simple numbers between two NXT's. But (...) (20 years ago, 2-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)
