New Lego Mindstorms Kit
I got my hands on a newly released Lego Mindstorms NXT kit and I must say I am impressed with it. Although it does have a lot of limitations like only 4 inputs and 3 outputs, it does use a 32 bit processor, integrated bluetooth (made especially to interface with bluetooth phones and PDA’s), motors with control over degree and rotation, a remarkably cute sonar unit that measures 0 to 255cm (8 bit anyone 😛 )with +/- 3cm accuricy, the regular suite of lego sensors, and its designed for 10 year olds. Since im almost 30, that makes me equivelent to 3 10 year olds. Watch www.slackerobotics.com for more info, err that is if I stop slacking long enough to update the site.
