Re: Distance sensor for the RCX?
Cross talk won't be an issue either way, as I'd only have one of these distance sensors. I'll try the SHARP IR one, simply because you linked to it and it's less effort to find, and we'll see what happens.

Re: Distance sensor for the RCX?
I was thinking ultrasonic because I'd like to have consistent readings in any light. Another thing with an IR sensor is that it'd give you a higher reading with a more reflective surface, telling the RCX that it's closer to a wall than it actually is, which could very well lead the robot to do somet...

Is there, either somewhere on the internet or in one of your houses or anywhere, really, plans for a distance sensor for the RCX? I'm trying to make a robot that scans the area around it, measuring the distance from it to where ever the distance sensor is pointing, and then looks for significantly s...

BricxCC Help
I have an RCX 2.0 kit and I'd like to write some navigation routines in Bricx Command Center, but when I try to use motor functions, like SetSpeed, SetPower, or even motor variables like OUT_FULL, I get a compiler error telling me that BricxCC does not recognize "SetSpeed" or "SetPowe...
