====== History of Mindstorms ====== | |
| |
===== Evolution of LEGO kits ===== | |
| |
==== LEGO Technic ==== | |
| |
The LEGO Technic kit included: | |
* mechanical elements, | |
* pneumatic elements, | |
* electrical motors. | |
| |
The kit did not include a microcontroller. | |

| |
| |
==== Robotic Invention System ==== | |
| |
RIS versions: | |
* 1998r.: RIS 1.0, | |
* 1999r.: RIS 1.5, | |
* 2001r.: RIS 2.0. | |
| |
The most important change: RCX 'brick', which contains programmable microcontroller Renesas H8/300. | |
Furthermore introduced: | |
* possibility of communication between RCXs, | |
* sensors (e.g. of color and touch), | |
* additional electronical equipment, e.g. speakers, | |
* about 700 elements. | |

| |
==== Mindstorms NXT ==== | |
| |
Mindstorms NXT replaced Robotic Invention Systems. | |
| |
Zestaw Mindstorms NXT pojawił się w połowie 2006 roku i zastąpił zestawy Robotic Invention System. | |
The kit include: | |
| |
* more sensors, | |
* about 500 elements (such as: wheels, bars, adapters, hubs, etc.), | |
* motors with sensor of position and tachometer, | |
* touch sensor, sound sensor, color sensor, ultrasonic sensor. | |
| |
Mindstorms NXT supports a lot of programming languages. | |

| |
=== Lego Cybermaster === | |
* communication RF, | |
* Passive sensors limitations, | |
* no possibility of software development. | |

| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
=== Codepilot === | |
* only basic elements, | |
* programing through switching to learn-mode and using light sensor to get over coded cammands. | |
| |
| |
| |
| |
=== Scout === | |
* poor possibilities of programming, | |
* RCX communication. | |
| |
| |
| |
=== Micro Scout === | |
* limited Scout version, | |
* communication with: Scout, Spybotics, RCX by VLL. | |

| |
| |
=== Spybotics === | |
* toy-version of Cybermaster, | |
* communication with other Spybotics and with RCX. | |
