  Re: roboball
 
(...) Here's what the kids can do to get started. Build a simple robot with a forward pointing light sensor. Place the activated roboball right in front of the robot and take light readings as the robot moves backwards. This can be done manually or (...)

  brickOS-0.9 and 'error deleting program' message
 
I am new to Mindstorms, but not new to computer science. Anyway I am unable to load any program to the RCX robot using the dll. I have built the brickOS system using a egcs (v. 1.1.2) hitachi cross compiler on a Linux platform running the 2.6 (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RE: roboball
 
Hi Mr Soh, Thank you very much for your input. Would you share your experience and views regarding tackling roboball with the LEGO RCX and light sensors, without other soldering electronic components. I have a bunch bright young 11-14 kids, I want (...) (19 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

  Re: roboball
 
(...) 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)
 
  roboball
 
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)
 
  Re: Real-world interfacing to RCX: LEDs and magnetic sensor
 
(...) 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 (...)

  Real-world interfacing to RCX: LEDs and magnetic sensor
 
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)
