This is COOL! Once again, it seems obvious that the limits of the
original LEGO firmware can be busted wide open when you look
at alternative firmware.

In Francesco's case, packaging a C library for everyone is a big step
forward. Many of you may remember that Kekoa's original C interface
to the ROM was done almost a year ago, and that it is the basis for
many of our investigations!

This is one of the first applications of replacement firmware that
does something that you could not easily do with NQC.

Way to go Francesco!

Cheers,

WOW! I didn't know any thing like that was possible with the RCX. Does it know when it wins? How long did it take to program? Thats incredibly. (...) (25 years ago, 5-Feb-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
