This isn't suitable for Vlad's original problem, but I do want to point out
that motors can be adapted as cheap rotation sensors (actually rotational
velocity sensors, which is the first deriviative of what a normal rotation
sensor gives you) by connecting them through a couple resistors to a sensor
input. You can even use the same motor as a motor output, although it defeats
the input's ability to measure rotation. See
http://www.mrob.com/robot/adapter.html and see www.mrob.com/robot for a
description of what I used this for.

| Using two rotation sensors should do the job nicely, at a higher cost however. But you can connect them directly to the RCX. About that : did anyone build a reliable (and cheaper) rotation sensor replacement? Why not using a lego wheel with holes (...) (25 years ago, 11-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics)
