Great news if you have lost your installation CD or you are looking to
install NXT-G on more computers.
LEGO has just released the NXT-G 2.0 software for download for free.
A few caveats though. This is the retail version of the software so
you won’t have any of the nice graphical datalogging capabilities and
there is no ‘Robot Educator’ so you don’t have access to all the great
tutorials. The temperature sensor blocks aren’t included but the
colour sensor blocks are. You can always download a temperature block
from Steve Hassenplug’s website
(http://www.teamhassenplug.org/NXT/NXTGAdditions.html)
But if all you are doing is standard programming, this will be fine.
I know of one teacher who is happy that they can now load a version of
the software onto their student laptops to take home (previous site
licences were a little murky on take home laptops).
The download is here as well as instructions on how to install it.

Whilst I haven’t tried it myself, I have heard of others being successful.

Dieses Manual zeigt wie Apps für das Google Betriebssystem Android programmiert werden können und wie diese u. a. mit
dem LEGO Mindstorms NXT verbunden werden.
Die Entwicklung der Apps erfolgt mit dem App Inventor von Google. Eine Schritt-für-Schritt Anleitung mit vielen Screen-Shots erläutert ausführlich die grafische Programmierung der Android-Apps.

Share on FacebookHeyho,
Some of you already know about it, but now it is official. As a fan of Roberta on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/Roberta.Roboter) you are now able to download an exclusive experiment, describing a dockingstation and a NXT robot, called “Jeffrey” that is able to find this dockingstation to recharge its battery. Just log in to Facebook, become a fan and click on “For Fans only!”.
Btw, this is the experiment i showed in Zwolle, some of you might remember.
Feel free to blog about it, give feedback and have fun with it!
br,
Sebastian
Share on FacebookThe guys at freedroidz developed an android app to remote control the Lego Mindstorms NXT. Here is a Youtube-Video showing the remote control in action:
The required Software is available for download at:

Share on FacebookDas 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.
Auf dem Roberta-Portal steht eine überarbeitete Version des NXC Tutorials zum Download bereit.
U.a. wurden folgende Themen ergänzt:

From now on the LEGO Mindstorms RCX Simulator – RobertaSim – is ready for download for all certified and registered Roberta Teachers on the internal pages of the Roberta portal.
RobertaSim can be used to simulate LEGO Mindstorms robots (of the Robotics Invention System 2.0 series). The software enables the user to program a virtual robot with the usual programming languages (RIS/RCX code and NQC). The behavior of the real robot to be expected can be observed in real time on the monitor. The virtual robot’s operation has been adapted from the one of the real robot.
