LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ lets you design and program real robots that do what you want them to. With the Robotics Invention System 2.0™, the core set of the LEGO MINDSTORMS product range, you can create everything from a light-sensitive intruder alarm to a robotic rover that can follow a trail, move around obstacles, and even duck into dark corners.
At the heart of the system is the RCX, an autonomous LEGO microcomputer that can be programmed using a PC. The RCX serves as the brain of LEGO MINDSTORMS inventions. It uses sensors to take input from its environment, processes data, and signals output motors to turn on and off. Users first build their robot using the RCX and LEGO elements. They then create a program for their invention using RCX Code, a simple yet powerful programming language. Next, they download their program to the RCX using a special infrared transmitter. Their creation can now interact with the environment, fully independent from the computer.
The Robotics Invention System provides Students with guidance to build working robots in under an hour, as well as inspiration for more complex robotic inventions.
