This was posted in the news section of the Mindstorms website. I think it's great that they're updating the news section so often! What they post is always so interesting. This time the news story is about a guy named Michael "Mike" Brandl. He seems to enjoy plotting pictures on objects. :) He seems awesome; I would love to have a life like his- Attending exhibitions, building your dream models, having your projects recognized and posted about on the NXTLOG... Make sure to go here to read more. There are several links and even a video to watch. :)
"This robot draws nearly the entire world on a blank white ball. For this robot the coordinates of the continents were prepared as a zigzag line, drawn with a green felt tip pen. After the continents are drawn the robot switches colors from green to black. With this pen the continents are labeled, AS for Asia, AF for Africa, NA for North America, SA for South America and EU for the European Union. After switching to the blue pen the oceans are labeled, PAC for the Pacific, ATL for the Atlantic, IND for the Indian Ocean."
