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.

I have added a LEGO Mindstorms section to this site aiming on NXT development on the Linux platform. Go to the site here.

I will post Links to interesting projects and code there. If you have some interesting content for that site, please let me know!
