본 연구는 Lego Mindstorms NXT 상에서 음악을 재생할 수 있도록 하는 SimMusic language를 정의한다. 재생하고자 하는 악보는 SimMusic language로 작성되고, Lego Mindstorms NXT로 조립된 SimMusic player는 SimMusic 프로그램을 읽고 음악을 재생한다. SimMusic player를 통해 하나의 악보가 재생되는 일련의 과정은 컴퓨터 구조에서 프로그램이 수행되는 과정을 기반으로 구현되었기 때문에, 본 연구는 비전공자도 쉽게 컴퓨터 과학의 기초를 다질 수 있는 계기가 된다.

This paper introduces development of location estimation and navigation system of mobile robots using USN and LEGO Mindstorms NXT. Developed system includes location estimation, location and navigation information display and navigation control parts. It used ZigBee based USN which was built with CC2431 chip to locate blind node and implemented fuzzy model to improve ability of calculation of distances from reference nodes and location of mobile robots. This paper proposed combination method of location estimation using USN and encoder which is built in motors of mobile robots. Experimental results showed proposed method is superior to the method which used USN only in location estimation and navigating robots. Developed system can locate current position of mobile robots and monitor information from sensor nodes like temperature, humidity and send control signal to mobile robot to move.

In this paper, we show how a curriculum using LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT robot based ROBOTC for undergraduate students has been developed, and we analyze the educational effect of the curriculum. The curriculum is composed of basic knowledge learning, practice with basic robots, practice with advanced robots, and creative design and implementation of robots. During the three year period since 2009, educational achievement has been analyzed by surveys for 6 classes, 94 students. According to the analysis, the curriculum has highly motivated the students and made them to achieve effectively our educational and academic goals. Also, we observe that the curriculum helped the students to improve their creativity and the problem solving skill, and that the students were autonomously and deeply involved in the homework and the term projects, which made them be very cooperative. Finally, the intensive practice with ROBOTC programming is shown to help students to improve their programming ability of C language.

In this paper, we describe a case study of a new lab. project that improves efficiency for education and interest on learning in image processing and pattern recognition related subjects by using LEGO Mindstorms. In addition we verify the validity with analysis of the practical application. LEGO Mindstorms is already used in many educational institution of several countries since about 10 years ago and various case studies have been published. The use of LEGO Mindstorms is generally positive but the negative comments about this exist. The main cause of negative opinion is from unpredictability. The unpredictability from mainly analog characteristics of robot can degrade the effective learning. The describing lab. project suppresses occurrence of unpredictability by minimizing dependence on robots. Students can concentrate on learning the related algorithms by minimizing the learning content and further consideration.

레고 마인드스톰 NXT는 다른 로봇 키드에 비해서 조작이 간편하며, 고차원적인 로봇 행위를 제어하기 위해 펌웨어인 leJOS를 지원하며, 블루투스를 이용한 원격 제어가 가능하다. 그러나 leJOS는 외부 파일을 제어하거나 센서 하드웨어가 정상 동작하지 않는 등의 몇 가지 문제점이 발견되었다. 본 논문에서는 leJOS가 갖는 이러한 일련의 문제점을 살펴보고, 이에 대한 해결책을 제시한다.

This paper proposes a teaching plan of programming language class for university of education students amusingly with LEGO Mindstorms NXT robot. The goal of class is not fragmentary knowledge acquirement but problem-solving of maze. This robot communicates with GUI named NXT-G installed in computer via USB. GUI is not text-based but icon-based programming tool. This paper designs a semester with 3 steps such as beginner, intermediate, high-rank. Beginner step is consists of learning of basic functions such as GUI usage and several sensors of robot. Intermediate step is consists of solving of maze problem with low complexity. High-rank step is consists of solving maze problem with medium and high complexity. All maze problem-solving have 3 process with algorithm, flowchart, and programming with stack.

The purpose of this study was to apply other programming tools such as robots parish. The robot was utilized for Lego Mindstorms NXT. Programming tools were used to block generic programming tools were used in the NXT-G, was used as a simulation programming tools MSRDS, mobile App Inventor is a programming tool (App Inventor). It can lead to interesting effects of learning and learning based on three programming tool above.
