Mindsensors has annoucned a new product. They've put together a new multiplexer that allows you to hook up four RCX sensors to the NXT. This is great for those folks who have alot of RCX sensors hanging around. Although you can't hook up any fancy sensors with it, it would be very useful to hook up a slew of touch sensors (as shown in the picture!) This is also great because the RCX sensors are much cheaper than the NXT ones. Coming soon over at Mindsensors.com
