A full automated Lego Train with Mindstorms NXT, Mindstorms EV3 and Mi

[Hanso]

I'm new on Eurobricks. Just wanted to share the project that I'm doing in the evening hours with a couple of colleagues: Sioux.NET on Track. See more at https://siouxnetontr...wordpress.com/.

Sioux .NET on Track is one of the expertisegroups of Sioux Embedded Systems in Eindhoven, a group of enthusiastic colleagues who come together after working hours to get experience with Microsoft.NET (mostly C# and WPF). To make learning fun, we develop an application for making a full automated Lego train, using Lego Mindstorms and Lego Power functions.

One of the things I managed to do, is to use the NXT as a remote control for the EV3. You can see a small movie at our Youtube channel:

It is not a finished product, but you can have the source code for free.

The current part that I'm working on, is the Candy Rotation Stock. See a video of the prototype here:

Please feel free to leave a comment here or at the Blog.

Let me know what you think.

Best,

Hans Odenthal
