PavementPilot Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) I would like to see some more updates or new features for Mindstorm. Is it possible to add a splitter or multiplexer for say motor control? 2 motors from one port, in effect allowing the control of 6 motors from one brick. Can the same be done for input sensors. Say 2 touch sensors in one port. Can the US be done the same? I would like to see some of these ideas or others, as some of us are not into modding parts ourselves. Could there be a remote be made by lego that doesnt require buying another brick, or getting a game controller, and having to do all the programming needed to make it work. Again, some of us do not want to work in script editors, and enjoy NXT-G programming. In short, Mindstorms is a great branch to the future of lego, but some more ready made parts would make it nicer for those that like to work with just the unmodified parts, that can be purchased.

ildefonso Posted April 28, 2011 Posted April 28, 2011 If you don't mind buying from 3rd party companies, Mindsensors has multiplexers and sensors that do most of these things that you are asking for. Quote
PavementPilot Posted April 28, 2011 Author Posted April 28, 2011 They have some nice stuff, but I would like to have the covers for them too. I like the neat appearance of the sensors and motors from lego. I am not really into naked electronics. Quote
