Because merely pointing an antenna isn't geeky enough.
This is made out of several lego mindstorms kits. I think I'm going to have to pick up the camera kit and get some rotation sensors to make it more accurate.
I haven't started writing programs for it yet, just setting up the motors, testing out the durability of the thing. Seems like it shouldn't fall apart without a serious drop.
Anyone know the lego programming languages really well? You could make this thing find networks and pick which one to stay on by signal strength.
Marc Duggan also did this with cantennas: http://www3.sympatico.ca/dugtan/wireless/lego_antenna.htm
Someone has *way* to much time on their hands. Now all we needs is Mindstorm antenna rotor.
