"N-X-Bee" is a robot built using LEGO Mindstorms NXT, and inspired by the Bee-Bot (http://www.bee-bot.co.uk/). It makes use of a HiTechnic touch sensor multiplexer. My son Mitch designed and built it, and I programmed it.
@johnsheffernan Mitch says thanks for the comment and that he'd love to meet you in person!! (Just quietly, I think he's angling to come over to the next Symposium!!)
To program this robot we used NXT-G. When the red reset button is pressed, a text file is opened on the NXT. When a direction button is pressed, a number (eg 1 = up, 2 = right, etc.) is written to the text file. When the green go button is pressed, the file is closed, reopened, and then read one number at a time. A case statement takes each number and moves the robot accordingly.
@OndrovideoPRODUCTION We used NXT-G. The touch sensor multiplexer is from HiTechnic, and the programming block needed to use it is from their web site.
