Stupid XP

We have a Windows XP machine and two Leopard Macs, But I use the XP one for NXT-G because the software seems to be designed for Windows. Unfortunately XP has managed to mess up and NXT-G doesn't work anymore. I guess I'll be using the Macs from now on!
Here's a screen shot of the erroneous operating system:



Click it. It's even better enlarged!

Thief Detection (and Elimination)

This is a LEGO/NXT creation I made that features a lego person "running" toward some money that he wants to steal. Luckily there is a state-of-the-art LASER-based security system that takes out the would-be thief with a missile.

It's a little distorted... YouTube's fault!

Another animation

In Mac OS X there is a setting you can turn on that magnifies the dock around your cursor, like this:



Although it is a nice bit of "eye candy" it can get very annoying after a while. So I made this Quicktime movie of it's first practical use.

PuddleWorks v1.5

(My entry for Action_Puny's Trialtank contest)

This is a robot I just made with my new treads designed to go on all terrain. Most treaded robots can do that. But this one can go through water! It can go in up to 7 cm deep water; Probably it could do better but I don't want to risk getting the NXT/motors wet.


Sorry for the mediocre quality of the video. Because of testing it in the bathtub I had to shoot it with indoor-quality lighting.

Flash Infinity

This is an interesting animation I made, it represents infinity. How cool is a never-ending sentence?




In case it doesn't work, the sentence is "NXTMonger builds because NXTMonger builds because...."
