  Lego Laser
 
Using pointers (pun) from a previous post, I have been building a laser for my robots. I used a miniature laser pointer from Sam Goody which was only $10. The hardest part so far was chopping up the pointer to get out the guts. It turned into a (...) (26 years ago, 11-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)  
 
  Re: P-brick Script code terminology
 
Ah that explains it! I didn't try RCX Code, I wasn't that keen on it and also it wouldn't run on my NT workstation. I moved straight on to NQC and more recently have been trying RoboLab.

(...) Two ways I know. 1. There is a program for the PC that will translate the Radio signal into IR and back again. 2. Take a connector and put it on the motor port of the master unit and put it to a sensor port. Now toggle the master unit's motor (...) (26 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: Mindstorms RIS 1.5 (9747) price?
 
My sense is that future versions (say in time for Christmas) will have new firmware, but the new firmware will also be available to current users. I'd say you got a good deal. At DM 109, even the Droid kit is a good deal, not even counting the (...) (26 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
