| | | | | (...) You can also get to the survey at: (URL) Wonder if this means they haven't started yet on new Mindstorms product. Was kind of hoping the next gen stuff would come along soon. Maybe they've got stuff developed and are just looking to the survey (...) (20 years ago, 17-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | | (...) It might be a long shot - but I am gonna ask for more sensor/motor ports and external power in/out lines. I always thought the active sensor thing was over complicated for any custom sensors. Since they pose the "what would you consider (...) (20 years ago, 17-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | | | OK, I give up. Exactly where on the lugnet site do you get the survey? Ralph (20 years ago, 17-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|
| | | | | | | (...) Well, I had to respond to the survey - how could I not!!! More ports and more sensor choices was my main message. I must say, having built numerous active sensors for RCX, I don't think I'd class the interface as hard to live with. Its cheap - (...) (20 years ago, 18-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

|
| | | | | | | | | I'm thinking something like a hybrid between the GameboyRCX and what we have now.... What if you could use an IR equipped palmPilot (or Clie), or even a PocketPC to talk to a simple micro. Wait, you'd need an IRDA protocol stack on the micro, unless (...)

| | | | | | | | (...) Umm - I think you guys got the wrong end of the stick there. I didnt mean bluetooth for sensor connectivity(cables do just fine), I only meant it to replace the existing IR interface for downloading programs. Although intelligent sensor nets (...)

| | | | | | (...) On the software side, don't forget to lobby them to fix the #$@%$! hyperthreading USB tower driver bug!!!! I'd also love to see real C/C++ programming support out of the box -- setting up Cygwin and brickOS is just too hard for most people. If (...) (20 years ago, 20-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | | | (...) For most Windows users it is extremely easy to set up Cygwin & brickOS (as well as pbForth and leJOS) using the pre-built installers I created. And who needs a graphical programming environment when you've got BricxCC? :-) John Hansen (URL) (20 years ago, 22-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I would love to see a flow chart on one side of the window with corresponding code on the other. This (...) (20 years ago, 23-Jun-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | (...) I'm not sure what good it'll do if the survey is that old but i took it anyway. BTW hope that release it soon since i''ll soon (i hope) be getting 2.0. I'd hate to get it and then a few months later see 3.0 in the shelfs. (20 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
