(...) Hi Elizabeth, The red LED serves only as an on/off indicator. And, as it only functions when the battery is fully charged, it is not a very good one. The rest of the LED's are infrared and invisible to the naked eye. One way to "see" the light (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

Hi, I got a roboball and wished to test it out for my group of kids to do a soccer game. When I first received it, one light bulb was lit. I tested it with the lego light sensor, but no reading. Then I connected it to a 9v . Unfortunately, now, the (...) (19 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

(...) The motor outputs give a square wave of 1/8 up to 8/8 of a cycle. You can use a counter running at 8x the cycle frequency to measure how many eighths the output is giving, and light an LED accordingly. For the magnetic sensor, I suggest (...)

I would like to be able to drive one or two banks of 7-8 LEDs off of the motor ports on the RCX. I know that there is a winker board that senses the motor level to determine what pattern to display. Can this be accomplished otherwise? I also want to (...) (19 years ago, 7-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

If so, try the one from my robot: (URL) It's actuated with pneumatics at the moment but the two 24mm pulleys have bevel gears linking them, to keep the fingers synchronised, so you could use a motor and low gearing to (...)

(...) John, I have a few beginner questions for you. I am trying to emulate the infrared protocol on a different microcontroller. I want it to be able to be controlled by a Lego remote and to send/receive messages to Lego devices. What format does (...)

In between you have any number of obstacles. The RCX's draw, or follow lines left by (...) (20 years ago, 24-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I suspect the biggest drawback is having your RCX's already built into a MOC to bring to BrickFest. (...) If (...) (20 years ago, 24-May-05, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.robotics.rcx)
