I just recently purchased a Mindstorms set (and a bunch of add-ons), plus I
have stuff like an X-10 wireless cam (very cool but a bit bulky to mount on
a robot).  I've been programming since forever, and I could probably help on
any projects (with a preference of coding in Java, since it's portable and

web sites (I wouldn't host with outgoing live video feeds; my home line is
only that fast on inbound, not outbound, content (it's microwave-based)).

Let me know if anybody wants to collaborate on something.

There is a discussion going on about an IR protocol for LegOS, nicknamed
LNP (Which I am very keen on us implementing, hopefully in a fairly open
form). The idea that sounds quite trick there is an IP<->LNP router of some
sort, which would not only allow remote control of robots via the internet,
but also robot<->robot comms via the internet.

Interested?

Kevin.

(...) ===...=== I've been planning on doing something like that. It's been about 3-4 years, but I've done web control of robots over the web (long before Mindstorms; we were a sort of beta testers for Lego and Fischertechnic(sp?)). In fact, some (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics)
