Dear legOSers, I have written a set of c++ classes for manipulating sensors and motors within legOS. The classes include: A) Sensor, a base class for accessing sensors B) LightSensor, derived from Sensor, but uses the LIGHT function to get values C) (...)

Looks solid to me, and I appreciate the effort to isolate all the code with #defines- hopefully, most future feature additions will be similarly controlled. If no one objects, I'm going to check this into CVS this afternoon. Thanks a lot, Jochen... (...) (24 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| | Using the rotation sensor as velocity sensor
|
|
Hello, For my own project I need to measure the velocity at which my robot is moving. I finally patched the legOS kernel to get accurate values. I think that others may profit from a good velocity sensor. The velocity is given in rotation ticks (...) (24 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello Does the Vision Command camera send messages to the RCX via the IR port ? I would assume this would be the case but I just wanted to make sure.
