Have you ever been in this situation? You have just built your greatest robot ever with your NXT set! You run to the computer program it, and someone (Mom, Dad, Sibling, Roommate, etc.) is using the computer. What do you do? Usually, you end up waiting until they are done. nxtBlock eliminates that waiting! While nxtBlock doesnt warp time or make the person what to stop using the computer. It does allow you write a program for your NXT on your iDevice (iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad), plug your NXT into your computer, press the "Compile and Upload" button, select the computer your NXT is plugged into, Your program will transfer to your NXT and you now have a nice freshly programed NXT to play with! Yay!
