I will have a look tonight – but as I have said in other posts. The interface for the motor will change in the future…

Hi

In C# most classes will have a tostring that you can use…

Hi

Well I won’t have time to look at it right now – but won’t this be a good opportunity to learn come C#?

Hi

I will have a look at it tonight

For LCD question please see here

Hi

Try to look at LcdConsole class found here

As well as the LCD example found here

Hi

Great – I can’t wait…

Hi

Have a look at the documentation

Hi Helmut

I don’t understand a single word about “network socket connection” or “RNDIS or CDC device”.

It simply means that the USB connection is “seen” as a ethernet device that you can ping and connect to as you would to any other PC/device on your network. This has a lot of advantages. One of the obvious ones being that it does not matter whether you connect to the brick over a WiFi network or through a USB cable – the same code can be used.

That is why (for me at least) it does not make any sense to build it into the motor control commands like you suggest. Instead we will add support for a service that allows you to remote control the brick. Hopefully we can make it support some parts of the MonoBrick communication library – but we have not started looking at this yet…

So I think that the answer to your originally would be:

USB support: coming very soon
Daisy-chaining: might also be available with the USB support – but not in the form you posted. Instead you will have to establish a socket connection to communicate with the other brick.

Hi

Ok – but It does not make sense for me to implement/test some new code – as I don’t own one of these…

Great – LEGO always has a nice service!!!

Hi Helmut

I will just answer your second question first..

USB to PC connection to transmit (upload) autonomous programs from PC to EV3 using Visual Studio?

Currently we are testing UBS connection with a new image and everything is working on both Windows and Mac OS. Also we had a contributor that did a very nice plugin for Xamarin Studio that allows you to upload and debug programs within the IDE. This has been tested to work with both WiFi and USB.

USB-daisy-chaining like as it is possible with the EV3-G environment for autonomous robots?

Since a USB will be tread as a Ethernet network I am sure this can be done quite easily by creating a “network socket connection” with the attached brick. I haven’t had the change to test this on the new image but I might look at it before we release the next version. But this has more to do with getting the brick to recognise a RNDIS or CDC device.

Hope this answers your questions

Hi Helmut

I think the best approach is to have a look at the base class for I2C sensor. You can find it here… also have a look at the code for one of the sensors that use this class for example the HT Compass Sensor. Once you are done and have everything working please make a pull request so we can make this a part of the MonoBrick Firmware – let me know how it goes

Hi again

Is the original Brick Firmeware relevant? which will work?

Work for what? I am not sure I understand the question

Hi

This is amazing – could you please post some video and pictures.
