10 Reasons Why NXT is the Golden Age of LEGO Mindstorms

Why EV3 is the golden age by Builderdude35 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXeTZ56IeL1rY8U

[@hydroworld-soontobemigrate6160]

Yep, found that already! Thanks!

[@Builderdude35]

Enjoy! 😎

Not this Failure, he couldn't even release a tutorial how to make a Fll robot

[@Builderdude35]

I had no idea you could use the NXT sound sensor to recognize some words! That's truly epic, I will try to dig out my old NXT and try that sometime! Excellent job on the video!

[@Unbrickme]

Thank you very much!!!

[@TomIsQuestionable]

I’m really tempted to get an NXT 2.0 set even though I have an EV3, just because it has such a “nostalgic” design (which might be from seeing it in the back of old LEGO magazines as a kid)

[@Unbrickme]

You should get an nxt 2.0 kit

[@tomclanys]

The design really didn't age at all, while EV3 already looks... "old" IMO. Nostalgia can be in there too, cause most of the cool designs I've ever seen were made with NXT

[@MadamLava094]

I had a 2.0 as a kid, amazing kit. Also much like the RCS i feel it fit the look of the accompanying technic parts of its era really well, designwise. I also remember how NXT dominated in that early lego KZbin golden age before you needed a degree to make a successful video.

[@smivvys]

i agree! i have ev3 but i really wish i had nxt, the lack of sensors and the brick startup time are quite annoying

[@hansdietrich83]

After studying Electrical Engineering for 3 Years, i now see how much more Lego could have done with the hardware, but didn't. Here are some things: -Only 4 sensor ports really limited capabilities -wasting a whole sensor port on a single button -the color sensor not beeing included in the first nxt set -making even the simple sensors huge, just so they all look the same -so few, but really weirdly placed mounting points on the motors and the main brick -only having the 4 buttons on the main brick -inflexible, flat rj45 cables And on a side note: I find the included technic parts pretty weird. They could have put much more universal pars in there

[@TheDenyingDutchman]

Multiplexers were available from third party suppliers. I agree with the huge, odd, sized motors and sensors, which didn't make sense at all! The RCX button sensors were much smaller and nicer. And they can be used with an adapter cable.

[@mondobizarrro5468]

I once went to a robotics camp as a kid where we used nxt. We had a battlebots one where i made a robot that won because it had a flipper arm that could flip robots. Its first test it was a bit too big and it didnt work but the second time it went all the way to the top

[@suspense_comix3237]

I thought the WeDo is also part of the NXT, EV3, Spike, and RCX group. I owned one.

[@Renault_75-34MX]

My school has a Lego mindstorms school club, and they only use NXT.

[@Unbrickme]

Awesome!

[@TerlinguaSara]

Does anyone know where to find the software for HiTechnic sensors?? The old website is gone and the wayback machine doesn't have the downloads. 😢

[@LiamSPC9065]

Mindstorms should never have discontinued

[@DzieXik]

I'd love to see comparison NXT and NXT 2.0

[@Unbrickme]

The robots and selection of pieces is quite different. NXT 1.0 came with a light sensor and sound sensor. NXT 2.0 came with two touch sensors (replacing the sound sensor) and the color sensor replaced the light sensor (new color sensor had a light sensor mode too)

[@DzieXik]

@@Unbrickme yup, just bought 2.0 version, but saw some additional sensors on BL and I'm curious which will be usefull for 2.0

[@Mocsfromscratch]

I know why LEGO Mindstorms NXT is the golden age. It is because of the orange - gold color

[@Unbrickme]

:)

[@vel5094]

When I was in the 6th grade, we had a club about Lego Mindstorms and competed in a contest about it, I was the programmer of the team and it was very fun designing our segregation robot.

[@Mocsfromscratch]

@@vel5094 Nice!

[@hydroworld-soontobemigrate6160]

Oh, really? I never knew the NXT sound sensor could be used for recognizing words! I thought it could only detect sounds of certain decibel values.

[@Unbrickme]

The program is extremely complex for phrase recognition but it works

[@TurnaboutAkamia]

@@Unbrickme Fascinating! I remember during the early years of the NXT, it was said in some places to be too "coarse grained" for that. So to see that someone got it to work for that anyway is pretty neat!

[@Mocsfromscratch]

The LEGO Mindstorms NXT brick is kinda similar to LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Brick. Just look at their buttons.

[@Unbrickme]

They have a very similar form factor, but theyre also very different in terms of software

[@nataliegrego5448]

You are a natural 😮🤖

[@ThatBoyGeremy]

You are amazing, can you make a video about pnewmatic set?

[@Unbrickme]

Thank you very much! Here you go kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJrIfJSmidyikMU&t

[@zakariajami1625]

For the new lego space shuttle coming out you should make a video of how to moterisze the space shuttle and if you do it can you make it as cheap as possible so I could motorized because power up is a bit expensive you now

[@Unbrickme]

Sure

[@zakariajami1625]

Thanks

[@adp0101]

Can u make a video on only the ev3, boost and lego minstorm n.x.t 1.0 and 2.0

[@Mocsfromscratch]

If the LEGO Mindstorms NXT is a golden age, then LEGO Mindstorms NXT should be not retired. Too sad that everybody likes EV3 than NXT. I like NXT. LEGO Mindstorms is a legendary gold LEGO Robotics.

[@Unbrickme]

Everything has to retire at some point. Even the EV3 is now retired

[@hydroworld-soontobemigrate6160]

Well, I think the main advantages of EV3 over NXT have something to do with the additions of hardwire daisy-chaining and expandable storage. You can't really do those things with the NXT.

[@Unbrickme]

@@hydroworld-soontobemigrate6160 True, the EV3 was technologically more advanced. But I still think that the NXT had a greater impact on the world of Lego Mindstorms. It's much more iconic than the EV3

[@galizakeithd.2579]

Sad, I don't even have a robotic set

[@Victorsvolkswagens]

I remember the nxt man i want to get another they are so expensive

[@Mocsfromscratch]

If the EV3 is retiring, that means there will be 3 generations of LEGO Mindstorms. RCX, NXT and Spike prime

[@Unbrickme]

RCX and NXT have already been retired for a long time though

[@Mocsfromscratch]

@@Unbrickme Oh. That means there is only spike prime generation. And nothing else. I wonder what is the next generation of LEGO Mindstorms in the future?

[@powerpc64]

If I ever get a mindstorms kit imma make a tank

[@noah_the_nerfer]

i might be geting the nxt sistem and i cant wait to spend days on it just messing around

[@Unbrickme]

The NXT system is the best!

[@Mocsfromscratch]

Is the temperature sensor came from NXT or EV3?

[@Unbrickme]

NXT

[@hydroworld-soontobemigrate6160]

What a coincidence! This video about NXT being the golden age was apparently uploaded at almost the exact same time as this one, which considers the EV3 to be the golden age: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXeTZ56IeL1rY8U

[@Builderdude35]

I think in may be a conspiracy by the Illuminati... 😱

next video will be about top 10 lego technic trucks

[@darrellaldrich8334]

@@Unbrickme How about doing a video about Technic "not a vehicle" sets or MOCs?

[@arandomhobbychannel6718]

Nxt is cool, but in 2023 the bricks are outdated and pretty much unusable unless you use an older pc, the bricks have issues with newer laptops and they will end up not being able to boot after programming them with the new pc's. The issue is with the usb drivers they use, they use 2 of them which compatibly is the main issue.

Is it possible to use VirtualBox with some old Windows version to make it work?
