Robotics Trends’ RoboDevelopment Conference and Exposition is an educational forum and trade show dedicated to addressing the technical issues involved with the design and development of robotic products. This year’s event was held on October 25 & 26th at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, San Jose, California, USA. LEGO MINDSTORMS was kindly invited to participate in the event through National Instruments (who developed the LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT-G software).

MCP (MINDSTORMS Community Partner) Brian Laschkewitsch was on hand to demonstrate the possibilities of LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT. Visitors were wowed by a NXT powered LEGO TECHNIC Motorized Bulldozer (#8275) equipped with a new IR (infrared) Link sensor (available from HiTechnic Products) and new PF (Power Function) motors (available with the LEGO TECHNIC Motorized Bulldozer).

“With the availability of the IR link MINDSTORMS RCX owners can now ‘NXTize’ LEGO MINDSTORMS models with either an NXT or PF motors and an IR Link sensor and create brand new, programmable and remote-control toys,” says Laschkewitsch. With these new sensors and motors we can’t wait to see what LEGO MINDSTORMS fans will come up with NXT!

Special thanks to Brian Laschkewitsch for attending and sharing highlights from the event. You can learn more about him at his company’s website: www.learntodiscover.com/
