Robotic kit : hardwareIt is very easy to extend the standard features proposed by the Lego Mindstorms NXT kit by using additional Lego Technic parts. A lot of resources are available on the internet to build various sorts of robots (humanoids, robotic arms, rovers, animals…). In a few minutes you'll be able to build one of the 4 standard robots describes in the Lego Mindstorms NXT robotic kit. NXT-G, the Lego programming software included in the kit has a direct access to the Lego Mindstorms NXT community on the web to exchange plans, photos, code... In addition, Lego, but also other companies offer a variety of additional sensors so you can achieve your wildest dreams and make your robots smarter and interoperable with their environment. Many of these sensors are available on this website.Robotic kit : softwareThe Lego Mindstorms NXT V2 robotic kit contains a graphical programming software named NXT-G, based on the professional programming software Labview. NXT-G is compatible with PC and Mac.
This software does not require strong knowledge of programming because the programming is done graphically using drag and drop of functional blocks. A strength of Lego Mindstorms NXT is that several programming environments exist, some of them are free. Some examples are Labview, Microsoft Robotics Developer Studio (based on Microsoft Visual Studio, this programming environment allows the creation of complex programs using C#), Lejos (using Java) or RobotC (using C).Sensors included in the Lego Mindstorms NXT kitThe ultrasonic sonar sensor allows the Lego Mindstorms NXT robot to detect obstacles and to measure distances. The color sensor is able to distinguish colors. This sensor can be used as a light sensor to measure light intensity (to create behaviors where the robot run away light or to build a line follower) Last but not least, the contact sensors (also name touch sensors) are triggered when a contact is made.The Lego Mindstorms NXT 2.0 intelligent brickIt is the real brain of the robot.
This brick connects to the PC using either USB or Bluetooth (USB cable is included). This is possible to configure a PDA, a cell phone or a joystick to control remotely the robot. The NXT intelligent brick is powered by 6x LR 6 batteries (not included). Lego MINDSTORMS EV3 kit LineLeader-v2LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robot Model Technic 31313 - New and Sealed Last One!

LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0 combines the unlimited versatility of the LEGO building system with an intelligent microcomputer brick and intuitive drag-and-drop programming software. The 2.0 toolkit features everything you need to create your first robot in 30 minutes and then tens of thousands of other robotic inventions that do what you want. The intelligent NXT LEGO brick features a 32-bit microprocessor, a large matrix display, four input and three output ports, and a Bluetooth and USB communication link. It is powered by three interactive servo motors and features four sensors: ultrasonic, touch (two), and colour.
The colour sensor has triple functionality, distinguishing colours and light settings, and functioning as a lamp. The easy-to-use software (for PC and Mac) with icon-based drag-and-drop programming and 16 fun building and programming challenges makes it easy for anyone to program their robot, and the 612 LEGO pieces comprise everything you need for building great models. Building instructions for the four amazing robots are included on the software CD.
