Xbox NXT

This is a hacker-person that managed to get the NXT connected with the Kinect sensor that goes with your Xbox and used it to control the Tri-bot.







Great ball Contraption

This is a GBC.
People from different cities or country and they combined them together to make a big contraption. The parts have an entrance and a exit. With a bit of tweaking it works pretty well.
It has 93 parts(apparently a world record). Most of the parts are made with power functions and older train sets to move the balls around. I did see a few NXTs in the mix. It's quite a long video but a great video if you like to see different kinds of mechanisms.
