    NXT remote control by Power Functions handset —Philippe Hurbain
   (2 URLs) Here> you'll find how to transform a Power Functions IR receiver into a NXT sensor. With this hacked receiver you'll be able to control your NXT robot with a Power Functions handset. Enjoy! (URL) Philo> (14 years ago, 25-Feb-10, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic, FTX)

   Hi Philippe (...) Nice idea! W.r.t. the warning against using an NXT to PF converter: You could try adding a Schottky diode in the power supply line to protect the 4.3V supply of the NXT against somebody connecting 9V. The question is whether it (...) (14 years ago, 7-Mar-10, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)
