RE: robosoccer ball problem...

Hi all,



I am trying to get some middle school kids playing a bit with the robosoccer
idea. I don't want to frustrate them with the fluctuating IR ball.  So, I am
planning to find a constant "lighted"  ball for them instead, but no luck.
Wonder if anyone may have a suggestion.



By the way, the official IR soccer ball has a very unreliable IR emission.
there are times  my IR sensor just simply did not get any feedback even when
it is right next to it.  For my high school kids, I had them to implement
some kind of either probability, or just simply skip the reading if there
are spikes of drop.  Therefore, for the younger ones, I'd like to find a
lighted ball. any suggestion is appreciated.

I'm not sure if this is a right forum to ask for this.  I am wondering if
there is anyone who may be interested in working with 10 high school kids on
learning how to do robosoccer.

How might I implement a pop-up parts description when a student points the mouse
at a part on the screen?  Granted this procedure needs a library of part names
in the language of choice.

I imagine having to define a collision mask around the part and declaring it as
an object.  On mouse-enter, the pop-up appears with the correlated description.

Does anyone know how to link another program to the NXT constructopedia?

Best,
Edwin Pilobello
