(...) Last year I tried using RobotC on an RCX, and found it to be buggy and no longer maintained. It worked very well on the NXT, but I was looking for something affordable that I could use in a classroom environment, and that made it easy to (...) (14 years ago, 10-Sep-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I'm getting back into Mindstorms after a long hiatus. Let me resurrect this old thread, to see what the answer is in 2010. :-) What text-based languages are most mature and best-supported these days for programming RCX and NXT? Is RobotC still (...) (14 years ago, 28-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) I'm not sure how much time you have, or what resources... but you might be able to do this with a single set. If you put an arm on each motor, such that "track A" would hit a peg and turn the motor clockwise, but "Track B" would hit a peg on (...) (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Well, just for diversity here's a slightly different approach. Make the first block a "Reset Timer" block, then split the program into four sequences. Each is simply a "Wait for Touch Sensor", followed by "Read Timer" block with the result (...) (14 years ago, 24-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Yes, change the "wait for 9" to be a "check for 9", and the problem should go away... Loop forever if Touched and distance < 9 { turn on motor } else { turn off motor } Kevin (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) Chris, Sure it is, as long as the NXT cables are long enough to place the sensors where you want on the track. As you already figured out, the tricky bits are in the software. Here is pseudocode for what I would do were I to program it in G (...) (14 years ago, 19-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

I am hoping to build a race timer mechanism using my NXT and 4 touch sensors. Essentially I need it to be similar to a pinewood derby timer. I am holding a LEGO car race for our homeschool group, and would love to be able to do all of the timing (...) (14 years ago, 18-Aug-10, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
