I was looking for references to the Control Lab in Lugnet and came across this post ((URL) by John Hansen trying to buy a Control Lab to add some support for in in BricxCC/NQC. I can't seem to find out if anything ever came of it. Can anyone tell (...) (18 years ago, 6-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)

Are there any NXT fans in the Edmonton, Alberta area? I'm here until about Wednesday noon and would enjoy getting togher and seeing what you are up to and perhaps giving a demonstration of pbLua. Cheers, Ralph (18 years ago, 5-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)

We are currently developing a new xy-plotter using one RCX. We deliberately choose the RCX for this project, because we worked out an interesting open-loop control with modulated waveforms that are applied to the motors. The page is journal-style, (...) (18 years ago, 4-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) OK. I'll read up. At the moment, I'm staring at a midium size paper cup. I think I'll slice it in half and see how good a reflector it is. I suppose the studs on an 8x8 plate were probably acting like baffles in my last experiment. (18 years ago, 3-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)

No, these are for Lego-geeks only, who can recognize a Mac/PC parody using NXT/RCX instead. Very clever, kudos to the team that put them together. Alas, if you're looking for an academic comparison between the two, this isn't the place to find it. (...) (18 years ago, 3-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Getting a return off a cylindrical or worse yet, spherical object is very difficult. The sound reflects off in every direction, pretty uniformly, and so little of it comes back to the sensor. I'm not sure about your idea for using multiple (...) (18 years ago, 2-May-07, to lugnet.robotics)
