- Mindstorms
- Let's face it - Legos are a "kids' toy" - so why use it to build robots?
- They're cheap
- They're tolerant of mistakes & intermixable
- You can use them as easily as kids can, and work with them along side kids
- No soldering and electronics necessary (unless you want to!)
- Why shouldn't you use Legos?
- Cheap is only relative
- Some specialty parts are not easy to get hold of
- Lego robotics are not very precise
- RCX system is limited in number of inputs and outputs
-
Overall, For a starting-into-robotics set, it's pretty good.
