  Vision Command Questions
 
Hello, I have a few questions about Vision Command. 1. I'm a little confused about how the camera interfaces with the RCX. Does the camera just send data to the PC and then the PC sends commands to the RCX via the infrared tower? 2. Do you have to (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
 
  Allowing VC to select slot number for alternate program
 
For those of you who are tinkering with running alternate language programs from VC, Dean Husby suggested that you can add a little more flexibility with another modification. Modify the SpinLeft macro as shown below to allow you to select the slot (...) (23 years ago, 29-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.vc)
 
  Re: Studios camera working with Mindstorms
 
(...) If you're interested in going deeper with the vision command stuff you should try the activeX that allready has been written. Take a look at: (URL) I didn't try it yet. When trying, please let me know what you think of it. (23 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.vc)
 
  Vision Command and Macintosh
 
Ok, it was Christmas. I got a Vision Command box and want to use it with my Macintosh. I understand the camera is essentially from Logitech. I down loaded the version 3.1.3 software ("QuickCam 2.1.3 Installer") from their site. However, it does not (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.vc)

  Re: Using Vision Command as a Smart Sensor
 
(...) Nice page. It's such a shame that LEGO didn't think to just allow a person to use the MSG's when a zone is active... That's one huge oversight... Dean -- Coin-Op's For Sale!: (URL) Lego Workshop: (URL) Lego Club: (URL) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.vc)

  Using Vision Command as a Smart Sensor
 
Vision Command offers very limited control of the RCX. It would be nice if you could use VC as a smart sensor from a more convention RCX program with full control.
