A C++ OO framework that encapsulates the LASM bytecode of Lego has been developed inside a didactical project.

Would it be possible to have two RCX's communicate back and forth with a single PC by using two Infrared towers? By enclosing one tower/RCX pair in a box you could isolate the RCX's from interrupting each other's communications. I'm guessing that (...) (22 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Giuseppe, your attachment was discarded by the LUGNET server. Could you briefly summarize the information from the readme file that you think is relevant to this discussion? Thanks in advance! - Chris. (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Nice work! Glad to see a native Linux version of this. Quickly scanning your source code (no Linux machine to run it on today!) I notice that you send RCX opcodes in order to emulate the effect of each button on the remote. This is an (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) This is what I was wondering about. You have defined the core problem that needs solving (I was going to ask you to do that). So it seems we can have one PC to RCX link or multiple RCX's but not both, darn! (...) My initial idea/solution would (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) This is a good technique for addressing messages to an individual RCX, and I've used it myself on many occasions. In this case, it is your RCX or NQC program on the 'bot that is "responding" or "not responding" either by taking action or (...) (22 years ago, 23-May-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
