  Save the RIS!
 
This may be a childish and stupid idea, but given the present news and rumors on how the RIS system is heading, I'd like to see how many RIS & RCX enthusiasts there are. Maybe if there are enough of us out there, we could sway LEGOs mind from (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: RCX & RIS, a fading glory?
 
From all the posts I've gotten so far, this is a very sad day for lego...... Maybe in a few years, Lego will come to its senses and start off a new supercharged RIS 3.0. that will have a built-in, slimmer, lighter, rechargable battery, with more (...)

  RCX & RIS, a fading glory?
 
Ok, I haven't been around for a little while and I haven't seen any news at all about this, so I'm going to ask my fellow members: What's happening to the RIS?? The last update, 2.0, was not even close to being an update, all there was was some (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Pullback RCX Car
 
Interesting idea. The idea of a pullback car is that you provide the energy, and store it in a spring. How about a "real" pullback car that works like this: The drive motor would be used as a generator during pullback, to charge a capacitor. You (...)

  Pullback RCX Car
 
Hello, I've just had an crazy but simple idea a few days back. I was looking at all the pullback cars from LEGO in the shop, and it strikes me that the only thing that pullback motor does is to first "charge" the motor (spring) with energy and then (...)

  IR-Tower with a PowerBook G3 M3553 (Kanga)
 
A question from germany (sorry for my bad english). Is anybody out there, who connected the IR tower with the FIRST PowerBook G3 (little colored apple logo, built in 1997, family number M3553, us-nickname KANGA, 250 MHz)? This PowerBook has only one (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: IR Proximity Detection Problem
 
(...) 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)
