How To Program An Nxt Segway Program
Been doing some research on what are the alternative ways to program the NXT brick other than using NXT-G provided by Lego. It is seen that there quite a number of other alternative ways, but the most interesting one for me is RobotC. Since its using the C language and can keep the existing firmware which seems to be handy, as we can still easily test the new build with programs compiled by NXT-G.Another completely free (open source) solution is nxtOSEK/JSP. This includes its own RTOS.IAR provided a free 128KB special edition of IAR Embedded Workbench for LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT too.

However it required JTAG for programming the NXT.Links:RobotC (- single license fee = $30 US (Version 2.01)nxtOSEK/JSP (Embedded Workbench (http://iar.com/website1/1.0.1.0/1483/1/). Installed the LEGO programming software on my netbook, which is running quite smoothly. However I do think it is not very suitable to be running on my tiny screen.

(Note that you won't be able to program your logic if you are running screen in less than 1024 x 768 resoulation. Uh huh her another case free download. Since my netbook resolution is 1024 x 600, I have to use external lcd for using NXT-G properly. Lego should change the software so the panels can be resize and move around, they are currently fixed which is not flexible. The programming software provided by LEGO (NXT-G) is a graphical programming kit for easy programming on the NXT. The interface is quite simple to use and is not hard to use. However, as an embedded programmer myself, I'm still prefer to actual coding in language rather than using this kind of flow control type of graphical programming.
I will definitely change to use alternative methods to start programming the NXT Intelligent Brick. For the time being, this will be good enough for testing and playing with the models offically provided.
