 | | WeDo +RCX? —Jetro de Chateau
|
| | | I saw the WeDo sensors and hub available separately on LEGO Education website the other day and I started wondering if I could use them for anything... No one appears to have tried or managed to use the hub without the official software until now (...) (15 years ago, 9-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | | (...) I have sucessfully written a third party app that will let you drive the WeDo from your Windows machine. Linux will be supported fairly easily once I get the driver relinked, Mac when I get a Mac for development :-) Contact me offlist if (...) (15 years ago, 9-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | So far as I can see from the Scratch interface, there is control of one motor, but no sensors. (There are sensors via the ScratchBoard, but not through the WeDo interface.) I don't have the WeDo hardware, so have not investigated further. Kevin (...) (15 years ago, 10-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | | | (...) I saw a "WeDo 2 Puppet" project on the Scratch website that specifically mentions the use of the tilt senso so I suppose it must be possible to use sensors as well.

| | | | (...) You are correct---there is a tilt sensor and a distance sensor value available in the sensor value block. These get shown even if the motor blocks are not being shown, so I don't know why I missed them before. The values are 0 if no WeDo (...) (15 years ago, 11-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
