Compass Sensor
for Lego RCX
never get lost again
Design by Z. Ottten, write-up by L. Lemmens
Mindstorms, the by now well-known series of robot construction materials from
Lego, has already been the subject of several articles in Elektor Electronics. In
2000, we presented a series of five articles dealing with all the ins and outs of
the RCX module, which is a microcontroller block with three sensor inputs and
three outputs for controlling items such as motors and lamps. Following this
came a light sensor, a proximity sensor and a sensor multiplexer, and recently
a design for an I2C interface appeared in our magazine. This month it’s time for
a compass sensor, which enables us to give our robots a sense of direction.
