The Micro Scout's possibilities are somewhat very limited. It has 7 built-in
programs, and it can interact with user's behaviour with the light sensor. In
these programs the Micro Scout plays some sounds, move forward and backwards,
and nothing more. I think the most interesting program is number 3; running this
program let the robot follow a light source.
At the moment no one knows how to expand the bot's possibilites, and connect in
to the RCX. There is a misterious "P program" in addiotion to the others; the
instructions say that it has been developed for future versions of Mindstorms
pruducts, but no other explanations are given.
I think at the moment the possibilites for this bot to be a companion for the
RCX unit are very limited: no communication possible, apart from the light
sensor...
Hope this helps...
