Hi T.C., (...) I have an AT91SAM7S-EK here, it has 4 LEDs and 4 touch buttons. It should also be fairly easy to write a driver for one of the serial ports (polling would suffice for a start). On the NXT the only I/O that is easy to use with the (...) (17 years ago, 14-Oct-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)

Do a Google on "LEJOS OSEK". I believe this is a solution that has taken the base "OS" from the NXJ JAVA byte code interpreter as the basis for programming the NXT using GCC C++.
