Hello All,

There is a patch of Robolab to 2.5.3. Is called Service_Pack12.1 It is
around 4.2 mg in size

Follow this URL:

http://www.ceeo.tufts.edu/robolabatceeo/Resources/Service_Pack/default.asp


This is also a list of bug fixes including; one specific problem that made
me consider death on a weekend six months ago. "Greater and less than loops
were backward for the generic sensor." Thank You, Lord I was right!


This is a patch to upgrade from the 2.5.2 release. So do not apply this
patch to 2.5.1 or 2.5. You must get to 2.5.2 first.


Here is the URL to the documentation page:

The latest Lego Mindstorms SDK is here also

http://www.ceeo.tufts.edu/robolabatceeo/Resources/documentation/default.asp



There is a new section called NEW: Thesis & Dissertation Work related to
ROBOLAB, Lego's, and Engineering.

JUST THINK you can major in Robolab, the RCX, and Lego's and get a degree
from a great University!!

I have downloaded these papers but have not reviewed them:

IN MY OPINION, you need to be running release 2.5.2 to use the advanced
features in Robolab. There were a lot of necessary fixes in the service pack
1. Service Pack 1 updates you to 2.5.2 and is around 22 mg in size.

There is a lot of concern about RCX and Mindstorms in general on the Lugnet
system HOWEVER Tufts and some other great engineering schools continue to
update or use the Robolab system which should be good news for us.

Take care

  Re: LEGO robotics on a budget?
 
This is an awesome description of options! Here are my thoughts: If I was doing it all over again, I would get the first Team Challenge set you mentioned and the RIS 2.0 Upgrade (#3805, $19.99US). I can use Robolab or NQC on Mac or Windows. With (...) (21 years ago, 8-Jun-03, to lugnet.robotics)
