LabVIEW with NXT sensors

[gabrielse]

Some skilled LabVIEW programmer: PLEASE write vi's for the NXT accelerometer and gyro or tell me where I can get them.

I spent some time this summer working through LabVIEW Basics Course I. This fall I purchased an NXT robot so I could learn to program a robot with LabVIEW. Towards that end I also purchased the accelerometer and gyro.

After spending $400 on my NXT kit I discovered that the LabVIEW NXT toolkit does not include vi's for the accelerometer and gyro. I downloaded the NXT-G code from Hitechnic's website and recompiled the vi's. However, the vi's are password protected and useless.

I found some website where National Instruments claimed that they weren't releasing the code since it was proprietary. I'm afraid I just wasted a lot of money, but I still want to learn to program using the acclerometer and gyro.

Thanks in advance!
