(...) This could almost be a challange. How about marking up a circuit by marking the curbs with black tape. Then let the car race around trying to map the circuit and find the way through. After a coupple of laps it could finish "learning mode" and (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I'm thinking a stock-only (or nearly stock- rotation and extra light-sensors are legit) version, so IR is out. What do you have in mind for smart programming? A simple back and forth algorithm, or something that has an idea of where it is in (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)

Anyone ever think about putting the RCX brain into a radio controlled car. Have the RCX control the speed control and servos instead of using the radio. It would be cool to try out a REALLY fast robot. If you could control the car once using the (...) (25 years ago, 30-Sep-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Ok, what should we allow then? Only the RIS set or also extra sensors? How should we construct the track? I suggested marking the curbs with a black line, but mayby a gradient could be used so cars can find their way back on track if pushed (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) Well, as part of a course here at school, I have six RCXs, each with three light sensors and three rotation sensors. So that will be the rules when I run the race :) (...) Yeah- I had always wondered if the touch sensors could handle sensing (...) (25 years ago, 2-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics)
