I toyed some time ago with the idea of colored leds to provide color information to RCX - I didn't construct anything yet. I intended to use R/V/B leds (the addition of an IR one is a good idea) with an RCX controlled cycling mechanism to light the (...) (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I am having a problem compiling any program. I'll use helloworld.c that comes with legos as an example. This is the output of my terminal: $ make helloworld.lx /usr/bin/h830-hitachi-hms-ld -T ../boot/legOS.lds -relax -L/usr/lib/legOS/lib (...) (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Would it not be better to have 3 'eyes' each with a different filter. Red, Blue and green coloured filters. We used to do this for digitizing. Doesn't this application following the same rules? Since each 'eye' would have a different reading (...) (23 years ago, 29-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I've uploaded release 3.3.2.12 of BricxCC. A previous release (3.3.2.11) implemented support for COM5 through COM8. Existing users that have saved a default USB port will have to re-establish their default if they upgrade to this release. In (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

Is there a way using Robolab to display the value of a timer on the RCX LCD display? Thanks, Alan (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) VERY interesting! I was just talking with someone at the last SMART meeting how cool it would be if there was a colour light sensor. I can't wait to read more about it! Keep us informed how you do with it. I'm not exactly sure what a reading (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I suspect that when you look at the assembler code produced by the compiler you will find in the first instance it was able to optimize the FP multiply out of the inner loop since it didn't depend on the loop induction variable. Ie, it simply (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I should clarify that this is true for the first version only. For some reason, the compiler does not optimize the second version in the same way. Anyways, what I see in the disassembly for the first version is a loop to 100 inside a loop to (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Compiler optimization? At least, a disassembly of similar code showed me that that seemed to be the case. The compiler can see that t is not used. Try returning t, or copying t to a global before you return from main. That will make things (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
