| | | | Daniel, Peter Hesketh posted a similar suggestion, and yes the motor may be too firm for the job. I'll play around and do some testing, this week or as I can get time. Then I'll post the results. My goal is to end up with a pure Lego anemometer or (...) (26 years ago, 20-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | It occurs to me that a pure Lego solution could be constructed fron a fibre-optic doodad and a light sensor. Get your mechanisim to rotate the fibre-optic rotator, use one fibre pointing at the light sensor, and bingo! instant anero...wossname. and (...) (26 years ago, 21-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)

| | | | There is a better way to use the fiber optic doodad as a rotation sensor: just connect it to the RCX on an input configured as a light-sensor and count pulses in electrical resistance.

| | | | Way to go Simen! I just looked at your web site - Very cool. I can't wait to give this a try. Is there anywhere on your site where you have a code sample to share two sensors on one input? Regards, Dave Ryder. In article (...) (26 years ago, 21-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
