  Re: Ogre - a LEGO NXT based "tank"
 
(...) Thank you! The controls started out unintentional - I really wanted to use the NXt motors with encoders for other functions, so started out with just the XL PF motors. But as it is, it works great. It actually allows a third dual-control mode (...) (16 years ago, 23-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: NXT based 3D scanner
 
Philo! What a great tool to help your parts authoring. Not only is this creation fantastic, rare and unique, but some of your technical descriptions leave me reaching for my coffee and asprin! Amazing! I love the part of the video where you pan over (...) (16 years ago, 22-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Ogre - a LEGO NXT based "tank"
 
Mr. Davis! I just watched the video, AND IT IS AWESOME! That combination of controls is fantastic. I am really glad you posted this creation. I couldn't get over the way the thing shoots! It is utterly _!_ridiculoid_!_ LOL! <3 I really like the (...) (16 years ago, 22-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)

  Some Mindstorms NXT questions
 
1.Are there any phones that you can use alongside the Bluetooth in the NXT? Being able to use the features of a phone (cellular radio, faster CPU, internet connectivity, storage space (including memory cards on many models), GPS in some models etc) (...)

  Re: NXT based 3D scanner
 
Thanks everybody, be sure that when I got my first frog LDraw model out of it I was enthusiastic too! (...) But I am a bit afraid that the wings patterns will not be recognisable after the scan... Philo (16 years ago, 17-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Is bluetooth signal strength field work or not?
 
(...) Thanks for your reply, brian. English is not my native language, so my post may have wrong word. Also thanks for your correction. :) (16 years ago, 17-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: NXT based 3D scanner
 
It's very impressive that you pulled off a reasonably-precise 3D scanner using LEGO. Don't worry about its speed: all touch/contact scanners are slow. :) (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: How to control NXT motor's rotation by using LabView NXT Direct Commands?
 
(...) got it (...) There's not a super-easy way to do that. But, what you need to do is: 1) Read rotation value & direction of motor A 2) Look at rotation value & direction of motor B 3) Subtract B from A 4) Move motor B distance & direction (sign) (...)

  Re: How to control NXT motor's rotation by using LabView NXT Direct Commands?
 
<Thanks, but is not the information that i need. I know that with the rotation sensor, I can read the value of the rotation of one motor, but what I want is that this number, I want to put by a wire to a motor block, and that will make this example: (...)

  Re: Is bluetooth signal strength field work or not?
 
(...) If memory serves, yes - the field is there (and I think the BlueCore chip has the information), but it's not used. (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: How to control NXT motor's rotation by using LabView NXT Direct Commands?
 
If I read this correctly, you should simply be able to read the rotation sensors, using the rotation sensor block.  That will give you the value you want. Steve (...) (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Is bluetooth signal strength field work or not?
 
First, My NXT's firmware version is 1.05.(retail version) There is a field named "Bluetooth Signal Strength" in return package of the "GetDeviceInfo" command. I guess, It tells the strength of bluetooth radio that received NXT brick. But it is (...) (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: How to control NXT motor's rotation by using LabView NXT Direct Commands?
 
Hi, i'm interested too to see how I can make an input port to the block of motor. I want to make a rc controlled car, with two NXT. One will be the handwheel with the rotation sensor in one motor, I will send the number of degrees, and the RC car, (...) (16 years ago, 16-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics)
