As we inch closer to the launch of the new Mindstorms NXT later this fall, we’d like to take a nostalgic look back at some of the best creations from the last generation of Mindstorms. Many of us have seen some incredible Mindstorms constructs over the years, ranging from Rubik’s cube solvers and copiers to ATMs and Segway clones.
Here’s the deal: Beginning Monday, May 15th we’ll begin spotlighting one amazing, old school Mindstorms creation per week, based solely on the existing RCX. If you have an impressive, wacky or just plain cool Mindstorms creation — or know someone who does — please comment on this post with the info, or drop me an email at jeff [@] nxtbot.com.
We’d ideally need a few paragraphs describing the creation, as well as 2-3 high-quality digital photos. - [ Jeff James]
