Roberta-Dokument – Hardware des LEGO Mindstorms NXT Systems
Das Roberta-Thema „Hardware des LEGO Mindstorms NXT Systems“ behandelt die Hardwarespezifikation und Hardwareevaluation verschiedener Sensoren für das LEGO Mindstorms-System. Um Kenntnisse über die Genauigkeit und Zuverlässigkeit der Sensoren und Motoren und deren Zusammenspiel mit dem NXT-Baustein zu erhalten wurden zunächst die Hardware des NXT und verschiedener Sensoren spezifiziert.
Anschließend wurden Testreihen mit folgenden Sensoren durchgeführt:
* Tastsensor
* Geräuschsensor
* Lichtsensor
* Ultraschallsensor
* Kompasssensor
* Infrarotsensor
* Beschleunigungssensor
Das Dokument steht zum kostenlosen Download auf dem Roberta-Portal zur Verfügung.
Neue Version des deutschen NXC Tutorials
Auf dem Roberta-Portal steht eine überarbeitete Version des NXC Tutorials zum Download bereit.
U.a. wurden folgende Themen ergänzt:
- Arrays (Felder)
- Gleitkommazahlen
- mehr…
