Ada for ® Mindstorms® NXT under GNU/Linux
Release based on GNAT GPL 2009
UPDATE: The 2011 version is available here.
This package includes all the necessary tools to work with LEGO® Mindstorms® NXT under a Linux host using Ada:
- GNAT GPL 2009 toolchain targeted for ARM® microprocessors. It uses the Zero FootPrint run time profile so no Ada tasking features are available.
- nxtOSEK, open source platform for LEGO® Mindstorms® NXT. You'll need Wine to execute sg.exe under Linux.
- Ada bindings for the nxtOSEK API to provide tasking features.
- Ada bindings to interact with LEGO® Mindstorms® NXT Hardware.
- John Hansen's enhanced firmware for the NXT brick.
- NeXTTool, USB & Bluetooth NXT communication utility.
- LibNXT, NeXTTool alternative.
- Examples.
NOTE: All of these tools are freely distributed under LGPL, GPL or MDP licences.
This package was tested under Ubuntu 9.10 x86.
