One of those was <a href="https://fbi.informatik.fh-nuernberg.de/fwpf/Info_Angebote.asp?Ang_ID=3700&amp;strlang=en" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Self-Localization</a> held by <a href="http://www.wireless-earth.de" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Prof. Dr. Jörg Roth</a>. When I read the description it got me pretty excited about the topic. Not only because we would be using <a href="http://mindstorms.lego.com/en-us/Default.aspx" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">LEGO MINDSTORMS</a> to create a simple robot to apply the newly gained knowledge about how to find out where an object is located. When we&rsquo;re talking about location here, it means an indoor location which implies that <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gps" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GPS</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galileo_%28satellite_navigation%29" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Galileo</a> are not that suitable. So I was pretty happy I was chosen among about 14 other students to attend this course.</p> https://flohei.de/2009/03/classics-in-lego/ Mon, 02 Mar 2009 19:02:36 +0200 https://flohei.de/2009/03/classics-in-lego/ <p>I just came across this <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/balakov/sets/72157602602191858/" class="external-link" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Flickr photo set</a>. So great!</p>
