I have seen a custom sensor with three light sensitive elements and filters. you might be able to build a crude one with one light sensor, one motor(slowed down with worm gear or the micromotor), a wedge belt (...)

The downside is a 3-colour scanner would either use 3 (...) (21 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

| Hi Just wonder if there is anyone who has attempted to have lego light sensor to distinguish more colors than just black & white. Blue is too close to black... white is too close to white... ---...--- -------- Elizabeth Mabrey (21 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

| (...) Here's what the kids can do to get started. Build a simple robot with a forward pointing light sensor. Place the activated roboball right in front of the robot and take light readings as the robot moves backwards. This can be done manually or (...)

| Hi Mr Soh, Thank you very much for your input. Would you share your experience and views regarding tackling roboball with the LEGO RCX and light sensors, without other soldering electronic components. I have a bunch bright young 11-14 kids, I want (...) (21 years ago, 15-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

The rest of the LED's are infrared and invisible to the naked eye. One way to "see" the light (...) (21 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)

| Hi, I got a roboball and wished to test it out for my group of kids to do a soccer game. When I first received it, one light bulb was lit. I tested it with the lego light sensor, but no reading. Then I connected it to a 9v . Unfortunately, now, the (...) (21 years ago, 13-Jun-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
