LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0: Alpha Rex code

This is a very small segment of code that sets up Alpha Rex's movement and reactions. In this segment, you can see the two sound tiles separated by a 0.5 second wait tile. This is where it says 'Green Please' and then waits for a ball to be placed in its hands. Depending on the color, Alpha Rex will either drop the ball where he stands (red, yellow, or blue) or walk forward several steps before dropping the ball (green).

Mindstorms Alpha Rex Humanoid Robot Posted by brickrobot on January 3, 2011 I had some time yesterday, so I decided to build the Alpha Rex Humanoid Bot from the instructions that came with the Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0 Box (#8547). Alpha_rex.zip - This zip contains a really great program written for the NXT Alpha Rex robot. David Wallace (dww.roboticsDELETETHIS@gmail.com) is the author. SamplePrograms.zip - This zip contains several sample programs for the NXT. Compass2.nbc demonstrates reading data from the new HiTechnic compass sensor.
