Luis, here's a forwarded message with the links to Gavin's executables. You need to download the latest Cygwin distribution too, from (URL) (...) Alternatively, have a look at (URL) I've done a similar but lazier job of just providing an add-on lump (...) (27 years ago, 28-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | 3in1 Car #8286 as RCX AddOn?
|
|
Hi all. This is a bit OT, but has some relevance for people getting ONE MORE KIT to round out their RCX... LEGO S@H Canada has the 8286 3in1 car on sale for $90CDN With taxes and everything, that works out to about $70 US! This set has 726 peces (...)

(...) I'm pretty sure the echo is not direct, it goes out through the emitters and back into the receiver. This is demonstrated by varying the lighting conditions and/or the baud rate and noting the response. If the echo were direct, you'd receive (...) (27 years ago, 10-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi All. I've just had some wierdness with my tower and decided to open it up to see what's inside. My basic issue is that the two emitters and the detector are not lined up (even close) with the "Clear" lens section on the front of the tower. Is (...)

Following some discussion about the topic a few weeks ago, I was sufficiently curious and motivated enough to write a floating point library for the H8/RCX. Initially I thought I'd implement a non-IEEE floating point format optimized for the RCX, (...) (27 years ago, 27-May-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | JVM port status

The first phase of the JVM port to the RCX is complete (translating the existing 68HC11 code into C++). We are now testing that to make sure the port did not introduce bugs. The next steps (in parallel) are to finalize the RCX-specific classes and (...) (27 years ago, 21-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
