New NXT Color Sensor from Lego (and HiTechnic)
Lego is selling a color sensor for use with the NXT. It was designed by the HiTechnic company. It will ship in a few weeks. When someone gets one, please leave a comment to let everyone know how it works! The 0-17 color chart looks odd to me, but you do have access to the RGB (red, green, blue) values. Using all of those in NXT-G would be interesting. I'll need to get a bigger monitor for my programs. :)
It is available on the Lego site, and programming and other information is
on the HiTechnic site.
There is also a compass sensor available. More information here.
