(...) I felt a bit guilty after I posted my review because it was written with a lot of....well, let's just call it emotion.

A couple of people have expressed an interest in my Dissertation on evolvable Lego mindstorms Code, now I hadn't intended to publish anything on it until it was complete, but I was trying to avoid working :) So I knocked up a quick (very very dirty) (...)

I'm pretty sure there were no filters involved. This was the basic robot arm that can be built from the 9740(?) Control Lab Starter Set for the Serial Interface Box.

Ben, did this designer use any filters? Or was this simply the response of the LED and detector in the Light Sensor? (25 years ago, 6-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
