file icon Gyro Sensor Example: NXT Ghot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 2759

This example uses the gyro sensor to change the pitch of the note being played as the gyro sensor is turned. It should be noticed that the gyro sensor can read in positive or in negative, so the sensor must be offset in order to be able to output a sound for all values of the sensor. This example is for the NXT G software.


file icon RCX Direct Control: NXT Ghot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 2472

This code will allow the NXT to directly control the movement and function of a nearby RCX using the IR link sensor. This particular code will turn on the RCX's motor for 3 seconds, then turn that motor off. Note: The code is to be downloaded to the NXT, not the RCX. Also, the IR link sensor must be nearby and/or pointed directly at the RCX to sucessfully transmit the data.


file icon RCX Make Noise: NXT Ghot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 10630

This code uses the Hitechnic IR link sensor to make a nearby RCX make noise. The program is downloaded to an NXT with the IR link sensor. This sensor, when aimed towards the RCX, will send the data to the RCX, telling it to make a specific noise, which the RCX will immediately excecute.


This code will use the IR link sensor to directly control the function of a nearby RCX. This particular code will turn on two RCX motor for 1 second, then stop the motors. Note: The code is to be downloaded to the NXT, not the RCX.

file icon Remote RCX Control: RoboLabhot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 1119

This code will remotely control an RCX using an NXT and an IR Link sensor. The code to be run by the RCX is built into the program that the NXT will run. The NXT will send this program to the RCX and run it. Note: This code will be downloaded to the NXT, not the RCX. 

file icon RCX Make Noise: RoboLabhot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 8018

This code uses the NXT and IR link sensor to make the RCX make a specific noise. Note: The IR link sensor must be places near and/or aimed at the RCX in order to establish a good connection for the IR link sensor.

file icon Read RCX Sensor: RoboLabhot!Tooltip 11/03/2008 Hits: 1248

This specific code uses the IR link sensor to read a particular RCX sensor using the NXT.
