... it's looking for a winusb.dll file. Any idea where that should exist? WinUSB is a generic USB driver. On my Windows 7 the 32- and 64-bit version are placed here: C:\Windows\System32\winusb.dll C:\Windows\SysWOW64\winusb.dll Apparently it is included with Windows from Vista and on, so if you are...

Ok, thanks. I guess that perhaps I must have slipped some light in past a fingernail or something like that. So it turned out that my suspicion about the opaque bump of plastic was correct after all. Perhaps they just wanted it to look sufficiently different from the NXT1 light sensor. Looking forwa...

When looking at the NXT2 color sensor front on, it has three holes that open up to either a light-emitter or a sensor. The top-right one has three diodes inside: red, green and blue. The top-left seems to be a sensor, and so does the bottom one. I base this assumption on a very primitive experiment;...

Arrrrggghhh...... I have been struggling with this problem for a while now. Perhaps some fresh insight might help. For some unfathomable (to me) reason the algorithm only works for the Bluetooth-case. When it comes to USB, it seems to work, but this is really an illusion. What happens is that it con...

In that case:
Just released v2.2 which – among other things – fixes a problem with USB.

I don't think that would make it qualify as passive. I was just quoting the name Lego calls it by in the HDK. The third type they have is "Active sensor" which is the category that the RCX-sensors fits into. All the sensors is of cause digital, but they use "digital sensor" for ...

getColorNumber() is for working with the colored balls that comes with the NXT 2.0 retail box. It works just fine for them. If your needs is more advanced than this, then you will have to do something along the lines of what hassenplug suggests. However this will show down the reading because you no...
