(...) Not to put too fine a point on it, but the 100 cycle limit is only on the lock bits, I think. This is specified at the extreme limits of voltage and temperature. At normal room conditions, actual NXTs were reflashed (which cycles the lock (...) (18 years ago, 19-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi Geoffrey, (...) Detecting 1x1 plates should not be hard if they pass close to fiber optic end to efficiently block light. (...)

(...) Hi Brian, What kind of application needed this precision? Line follower? Did you need to shield the fiber to avoid stray coupling of light to the phototransistor? Philo (18 years ago, 18-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Do this with more than one light sensor, and you can have much better spatial resolution (the ends of two fiber optic cables can (...) (18 years ago, 18-Dec-06, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
