Re: NXT Sensors

I assume you are trying to use the NXT sensors on your main robot, not the minibot. If so, it depends on what kind of NXT sensors you are using. There are at least two kinds: analog sensors and I2C sensors. The Digital Side Car has an I2C port. So if the sensor is I2C, you could custom-made a modular cable and connect it there. But the next difficulty is write I2C code to talk to the sensor. You may be better off getting a regular ultrasonic sensor that is supported by WPILib.
