The benefit to being able to do this is that it is all done in "brickware" and
all sitting on only ***ONE*** RCX sensor input!!!

You would need one AND brick, one OR brick and one NOT brick (a NOT brick
might be hard to do, would it need it's own power supply?)

There was a Scientific American article about 'photovores' that had simple
(virtual) robots governed by basic logic circuits and motors.  It was published
circa 1986-7, and was really cool w/r/t the behaviours that arose out of
really trivial logic driving motors.
