  bi-directional optical brick-to-brick communication
 
Connection NXT to the RCX is not obvious. Here is a simple idea that we first realized as an experimental setup with 2 RCXs that can easily be turned into a bi-directional connection between intelligent bricks using only one port on each brick. The (...) (18 years ago, 23-Aug-06, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  NXT->PC Communication
 
I'm trying to figure out a way from a VB program to interact with the NXT, via USB or BlueTooth. I was hoping I could just open a serial COM port after a BlueTooth connection was established, and just read the message and parse it, but that doesn't (...)
