Hallo Andreas, (...) not that I know of, but take a look at (URL) , that should answer most questions. This is about RCX 1.0, but the 2.0 is identical w.r.t. software and very similar w.r.t. hardware. If you have further questions, don't hesitate to (...)

Basically there's enough light coming through that it would expose film quite quickly. Also, the ambient does have light in it. If the lego sensor isn't sensitive enough, could I easily replace it with another? (20 years ago, 14-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) Sam, you need to tell us more about 'how much' light-tightness you want and if the ambient has some or no light at all. As an extreme example, in testing a photographic darkroom for light-tightness it is common to hang a few rolls of unexposed (...) (20 years ago, 9-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I'm new to mindstorms so I have a simple question. At work, we're trying to measure the light tightness of rings. Basically this involves observing how much light passes through the outside edge of a ring. Is there any way a mindstorm light sensor (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jul-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...)

From the picture (d1_p31) it looks as though all 4 RCXs can see the tower. I don't know anything about pcrcxcomm.jar or rcxf7port; and not much about lejos, however, if all 4 RCXs try to respond to the tower, you will have collisions. Try covering (...)
