Your missing one very important fact here:

With the equations you gave, the pole can't be a variable size, can it?

Anyway, of course all problems solved with fuzzy logic can be solved using
"normal" equations, but I'm a student and I'm now following a course on
Fuzzy Logic. The points for this course can be acquired by an exam or a home
made project, uhm tough choise when you have the Mindstorms kit....

I will try both solutions, Fuzzy and Clear, let's see if it works, just for
fun cause that's what mindstorms is for, ain't it ?


Greetz,
