Actually.  we created  program for RUPUTER.

RUPUTER is very small computer. like watch,  It has 2 or 4M RAM and
16Bit CPU & IR port.
And  you can develop programs by GNU C.

Ruputer Home Page => http://ruputer.com/english/
and User Page: http://members.tripod.com/~timexfun/index.html

I don't have english page yet. but you may check a following page.

My rcxMct program is using RUPUTER IR port with direct I/O control.
and send  RCX OP Code  to Turn On/Off Motor.

So I think, if we have enough infomation of target hardware
and hardware support 38Khz IR  and programing skill and lot of time.
It is possible to develop RCX control program.

  IrDA anyone ?
 
I wonder would it be possible to communicate with the RCX using an IrDA compliant IR port such as ones on Notebooks or H/PC. I know someone had done it with his HP palmtop. Is IrDA standard IR port operating within the bandwidth of the RCX IR port ? (...) (28 years ago, 25-Jan-99, to lugnet.robotics)
