Review: The Lego Mindstorms NXT set includes three motors with built-in rotation sensors (servo motors); touch, light, sound and ultrasonic sensors; the NXT microcomputer; NXT-G programming software, and hundreds of Lego pieces. It also includes a user guide and instructions. But this book aims to take you a step beyond to help you make more effective and creative use of the set. There are four sections: An introduction to Lego Mindstorms NXT; Building (understanding the electronic pieces and gears etc.); NXT Programming (NXT-G and other unofficial languages: NBC, NXC, leJOS NXJ and Robot C); and Projects (including six robots).
