NXT Sequencer
One things I'm always keen to explore is the use of MINDSTORMS in ways that are not immediately obvious. I was lucky enough to have the chance to play with the new colour sensor that will ship with the 2.0 kit and came up with this little music sequencer.
Each coloured ball represents a different note. As the colour sensor passes over the top, the note assigned is played. Different rhythms are possible by placing the zamor spheres in different places on the holder.
Inspiration for this came from the BeatBearing project. http://www.beatbearing.co.uk/

That's not standard, just a LEGO exclusive :)

The chrome/gold NXT is cool as well. Where/when/how can I buy/steal it?

The white NXT lots (100.000ths)
The Black NXT 1998
The Gold NXT 40
to celebrate 10 years Mindstorms, LEGO made a black exclusive, and then at the 10 years party LEGO handed to a select group (MCP) a celebration gift being the gold NXT.
Still the NXT2 comes with the color sensor, but without the big wheel..

As for the gold brick, I think there were three of them on display at World fest. Fortunately, they didn't have the same fate as the color sensor (stolen).
I can't even find a picture of the gold RCX on the internet.
I wonder if it'd be possible to reduce the noise of the motors somehow?
The Gold NXT was a very special run and I was very very fortunate to receive one.
I guess this makes a 2nd instrument made with the gold nxt!

The Black wheel is actuall a green exoforce wheel painted black. I needed to do this as the green wheel gave some odd reading to the colour sensor and it couldn't tell the difference fromt he green zamor spheres.
