Hmmm is there a "raw data" mode for the sound sensor? Seems to me, it may be
possible (maybe not yet but one day) to write a program that does FFT analysis,
as long as it can get the raw wave data from the sensor.

I'm assuming the "tone mode" does something along those lines in hardware, but
it sounds (oops sorry pun) like it may be a little limited.

(...) The raw mode still just returns one number - essentially the integrated sound energy, where the weighting function is determined by the sensor mode (dB or dBA) and is all done on-board the sound sensor itself, not in the NXT. (...) You only (...) (18 years ago, 5-May-06, to lugnet.robotics)
