  Logging sensor data
 
Hi there, I'm quite new to the Mindstorms and LegOS/BrickOS scene but have recently begun using the kits for robotics purposes in University. They have been a revelation to me and speed up prototyping projects to no end. My question though concerns (...) (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Logging sensor data
 
(...) How many time do you want to log it ? you can stock it to the RAM or send it by lnp .... nanobapt (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: Logging sensor data
 
Hi nanobapt, What I tend to do is sample a sensor every say 20ms and log the data over a period of upto about 5 seconds. In your opinion what would be the best method, local storage or realtime streaming via LNP?, can LNP stream at this speed? (...) (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Logging sensor data
 
(...) You can combine both solutions ... Storage in the RCX memory and then send it by lnp (after 10 data for example) You need to test :) nanobapt (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: Logging sensor data
 
Hi nanobapt, Thanks for your help, I was sort of thinking along these lines. I know very little about LNP so apologies if I come across as a little ignorant. Is there an LNP server I can run on my machine to collect the data sent to the RCX tower? (...) (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) What OS do you use ? nanobapt (21 years ago, 9-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Arg .... you don't want to use legnoppix or something like that ? I don't know how implement LNPD to cygwin or other stuff like that nanobapt (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Logging sensor data
 
(...) If you had not already decided to use LegOS/BrickOS you might have used Robolab, which has nice sensor data-logging utilities built-in. I show a sensor log in my project 'The LEGO Level' at (URL) It's very easy to set up. Jerry (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Logging sensor data
 
(...) does robolab is free ? nanobapt (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Logging sensor data
 
(...) No, I regret to say, you must buy it. Jerry (21 years ago, 10-Dec-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
