The LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT software enables you
to program your NXT robotic invention and upload your programs
to the NXT via USB or Bluetooth connectivity. The intuitive Mac
and PC compatible drag and drop software, powered by National
Instruments LabVIEW, comes with building instructions and
programming guides to easily begin constructing and programming
with MINDSTORMS NXT. |

The LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT Software is powered by
NI LabVIEW, an intuitive graphical programming software used by
scientists and engineers worldwide to design, control and test
consumer products and systems such as MP3 and DVD players, cell
phones, and vehicle air bag safety systems. Applications include
helping to control the NASA Mars Pathfinder exploration to
testing the Microsoft Xbox.
