 | | NXT and Windows 7
|
|
I have Windows 7 RC on my netbook and I can't get the NXT software (version 1.1) to install. It hangs when the installer presents its progress bars and starts copying files off the CD. Does the 2.0 software work with Windows 7? By the way, RIS 2.0 (...) (15 years ago, 27-Jul-09, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) 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)

(...) 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. "The scratch project uses the tilt sensor to decide when they spin" Jetro (15 years ago, 11-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)

(...) Thanks. From the description I get the impression you can use 1 motor and 1 sensor at a time. Can anyone confirm this? Jetro (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)

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)

Hi, a blast from the past... My iBook running 10.4.6 has no problems downloading the firmware from MacNQC 4.05b but when I try to download a program I always get "communications error" and it fails. I've tried both the USB IR tower and the serial IR (...) (16 years ago, 21-May-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Now all my code changes are done via my local checkout from that repository and changes are checked in as (...) (16 years ago, 2-Feb-09, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.nxt)
