The problem is the same with LEGO-gear-motors. Even worse, the post says "... put a wire to the can ..." but how can you do this with a plastic device? Any help appreciated. Dirk (24 years ago, 14-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

As far as I know, the infinite loop construct is the way to do it. However, you can have multiple processes, each waiting on a sensor, each running in an infinite loop, each using the defer() function to allow switching between processes when (...)
