Dexter Industries have unleashed another sensor into the wild, the dLight. I sort of ran my mouth a little, when I released my previous version of the Driver Suite by mentioning it then. However, it’s out now and available from the Dexter Industries website. So what exactly is the dLight? [...]
Version 3.3 is out and should work just fine with all version of ROBOTC for NXT of at least 3.59. I still need more testers for the dWiFI and NXT2WIFI sensors, so if you’re keen, let me know. If you’re not keen, then, ehm, don’t. IMPORTANT NOTICE(S)! This suite will [...]
Mindsensors are about to release a Sensor MUX of their own! This one works very differently in that instead of doing the polling of the attached sensors for you, it allows itself to become a channel to said sensor. So, in essence, you send it a command, like “give me [...]
A new Driver Suite is here for your installing pleasure. The NXT2WIFI is pretty much done as far as I am concerned. I may add some nice wrappers for sending Tweets and that sort of thing but maybe someone else can do that and I’ll add the code to the [...]
There’s a new instalment of the Driver Suite. It’s still a bit of a work in progress at the moment, with regards to the RS485 stuff. I’m busy overhauling the RS485 code in the Dexter Industries dWifi and NXTBees, so for now, I would advise you to use temporary ones [...]
I am sure you’ve seen the pictures of the Wii Nunchucks attached to the NXT before on the Internet. However, they either required a very specific Nunchuck to be used or some modifications on the device itself. Dexter Industries, together with Matthew Richardson have come up with a great new [...]
It’s finally here, a little overdue, but I had a really good excuse, I was at a robotics event on Saturday and I was fixing some last minute bugs! Better to be late than buggy, right? That’s not saying there are no bugs in this release, of course. IMPORTANT NOTICE(S)! [...]
It’s here, folks! After what seems like an eternity, at least to me, I proudly present the first beta of the ROBOTC Driver Suite V3.0. The reason it’s beta is because I have not had a chance to test all of the drivers. I will continue to test more as [...]
Since the release of ROBOTC 3.50, I’ve been working hard on porting my current Driver Suite to the new function prototypes that came along with the introduction of pointers. Apart from the obvious changes to make it compile under ROBOTC 3.50, I have also finally made the move to rename [...]
If to be able to sense the Force you want your robot, an excellent choice this HiTechnic Force Sensor is. Hmmmmm. .. Due to come out in early October, this little bad boy can measure the amount of force applied to an axle that presses into the axle receptacle (image [...]
