connorbd's Lego Mindstorms Information Page
posted 3/20/2000
I have been involved in the online Lego Mindstorms community since late 1999, despite having only recently obtained my first Mindstorms set (the RDS). This page is a guide to my growing collection of Mindstorms information and software.
- The flagship of this site is the "Which Set Should I Buy?" FAQ, a concise reference to everything you need to get started with Lego Mindstorms. It includes set descriptions and links to important third-party support packages, and even information on where to buy Mindstorms and its related kits on the web.
- The Comprehensive NQC Archive Network is intended as a central location for grabbing interesting Not Quite C code snippets. I'll have links to a few of my own things, but it really belongs to the Mindstorms community. Submissions and mirror sites are welcome.
- Third is NQCIPC, my imaginatively named Semaphores'n'stuff package for RCX programmers. It's very simple (i.e. not bulletproof), but it's also enough to get the job done.
- Fourth is Mindstorms Wrestling, a set of rules for a rather speculative form of Lego sport based loosely on pro wrestling. It's not something I've tried, it may not be even practical, but it should be a fun read just as a bit of blue-sky thinking.
That's it for now -- I'll be adding more eventually.
