  Anyone using P-brick script code yet?
 
If so, I have a question. Is there and/or functionality for if statements: if x and y if x or y I have tried the obvious AND, &&, & etc., but without luck. Huw (26 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Localization and the RCX
 
(...) I've played with this only a bit. With tech the way it is right now I've come up with the following ideas. 1. The robot's playing area is painted from black to white. Where the top left is all white and the bottom right all black with a (...) (26 years ago, 8-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Localization and the RCX
 
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)
 
  Vision Command and 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)

(...) I've been running the alpha 2.0 firmware on my 1.0 RCX for a while now. Works great, extra features are useful. (26 years ago, 1-Sep-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Vision Command

  Re: Using a Sony Remote control to run my Mindstorms...

  One Way/No Way wires
 
Use of diodes to MUX two motors on a single output has been known for a long time. I have not seen a description of just putting the diode in the wire itself to make a One Way wire.
