Introduction
The ROBOTC Driver Suite was started back in 2008 when I wrote my first ROBOTC driver for the HiTechnic IR Link. It slowly grew from just a couple of drivers to an entire suite, supporting over 50 different sensors and devices that can be connected to the NXT.
Great care has been taken to ensure the API for the various drivers is consistent and easy to understand. The idea is that it should be clear from the name what a function does. A lot of time has gone into documenting each driver and providing examples for each driver to show how to use it.
Current version
The current version of the driver suite is 2.4
Installation instructions
- Download the latest release here: [LINK] and unzip in a directory of your choice.
- Make sure you are using ROBOTC 2.00 or higher.
- You can download ROBOTC here: [LINK].
I’ve created a short video on how to install the drivers in ROBOTC. It’s not very difficult but can be a little confusing if you’re not familiar with how ROBOTC handles includes. You should watch this full screen to make it a bit clearer.
Documentation
Documentation is shipped with the driver suite but you can also look it up online right here: [LINK].
