(...) A friend of mine attempted this setup a while back and came to the conclusion that he basically needed to be nearly perfectly perpendicular to the object he was trying to detect. So he decided this was way to precise/finicky for his general (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Sure. I've made that change now but I will wait for a few more updates before I put out a new release. Thanks, John Hansen (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Dean, Philo, Thank you both very much: Including the sensor monitoring in a "repeat"-loop brouhgt the solution. Works quite perfect. I guess "SendMessage" is somewhat slow, i. e. the IR-emission/reflection. Now I am going to even improve the (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) grab this update, but just in case it's not in this one, can you add to your list to add to the next release the file suffix .nqh to NQC files? Thanks again! (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I have attached to the end of this message the spyutils.nqh file I've been compiling. It's not got a lot in there yet, just the routines defined as "utility" in the Lego Spybotics ROM SDK plus the SendRCXMessage. I'm aiming toward this file being (...)

I've uploaded release 3.3.7.1 of BricxCC to my website. This adds a couple new features and fixes a few minor bugs. 1. Built-in MIDI conversion to NQC, MindScript, LASM, C, or Pascal. See Tools/MIDI Conversion. You can save directly to a file or to (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) An interesting idea. Presumably a light sensor alone would suffice, as it could be switched between active/passive mode to turn the LED on/off. You couldn't get high bandwidth, but there wouldn't be interference. Also, this would take multiple (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Maybe the ambient light is too high ? in that case you can decrease visible light sensitivity as well as shielding detector from red LED light using this method : (URL) (only hope that this doesn't offend your "Lego purity" sense ;o) Philo (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
