I just bought the moviemaker set without the software for $10. I'm trying to figure out how to use it, possibly with the RCX. Any ideas of any way to get software for it? Cindy (23 years ago, 5-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.vc)

The camera is a good quality and is most responsive to motion. The light and color sensitivity seem to be rather marginal. The big drawback is the cable to the camera. It is 16 feet long, which is great, but it is quite stiff and a cumbersome (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.vc)

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)
