We're working on a project that requires an autonomous robot to manage the localization problem. We started by trying just dead-reckoning. We've tried a number of different gearing set-ups and wheel configurations, including using a dual (...) (26 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi all, does anyone know how to copy a program from the RCX to a LINUX machine ? I am interested to get the binary code from the program in slot 5, which is downloaded to there, when running Vision Command. With this code, hopefully, the (...) (26 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
