[Lego NXT] Java Libs?

Engines, Libraries and Tools
#1

Hey guys Jake is back! I was grounded for a while and kinda dropped off the radar but now my nonsense posting can bring you all together again!

Now back on topic:

Last Christmas I got this lego thing. Its called like a lego Mindstorms ev3. I really wanted it because it was practically a robot you could build, upload software onto it, and make it move and do all sorts of stuff. So i instantly built a robot and decided to dive into their scripting language. As it turns out the entire thing is basic basic basic drag and drop. So, I was trying to find new ways to program this in Java. I remember finding a few Java libraries but I’d like to talk to anyone who has a little experienece in this first. So is their anyone out there who can guide me on this?

EDIT: Mindstorms Site Link

There is a download link for the software in the link you posted! xD I dont think it can be programed in java, you have to use that software! It would be cool if you can program it but it has it’s own OS-thing that controls it!

Well then can Rasberry-Pi make robots or something. I just want to make Java Robot Babies man.

Rasberry Pi can use java but are you aming for? And how do you think to make your robots? Just wondering.

Edit: There is a link on the bottom of the page Software Dev. Kit and Hardware Dev. Kit check them out there are no details on the page

If you put Java and Lego into search engine it’s usually the first thing that comes up:

I use it to program my Lego Mindstorms NXT but I want a BrickPi instead.

I highly recommend LeJos: http://www.lejos.org/

I built a drawing robot using LeJos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRqc8S7k6aM
