Arduino NXT

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Arduino2Lego is a project developed at the Politecnico of Milan by a Computer Science Engineering student. It aims to make all Lego NXT peripherals (motors, sensors,…) easily usable from Arduino.

Since i am not lucky with the original LEGO NXT programmable brick because I need the programming environment provided by LEGO. Sure, there are nice implementations of alternative firmwares around the web but none of them are what I want. Sometimes they are using ugly languages like Java and sometimes the code for the firmware is not public available.

Now I have my solution. Move the LEGO NXT brick to your trash and build one by yourself using Arduino based boards.

John, the author of l2gvpn released version 0.1 of l2gvpn some days ago.

Go, take a look! This is a really cool approach of a VPN implementation in just some few lines of code.
