		9	== Overview ==
		10
		11	Mindstorms is a product family from Lego, with sensors, motors and a programmable brick. The newest iteration of the product family is the EV3 programmable brick. Its predecessors are NXT and RCX. In the following we will see how to develop applications for the NXT brick, thus //Mindstorms// will be used exchangeable with //NXT brick//.
		12
		13	Several open-source, third-party replacements for the offical Lego firmware have been developed. These support many well known programming languages, such as Java, C/C++, Python, Lua, etc. In the following we will use KIELER SCCharts to program Mindstorms running the Lego Java Operating System ([[leJOS>>url:http://www.lejos.org/\|\|shape="rect"]]). Therefore we will first install leJOS and flash its firmware. Afterwards we will create a simple SCCharts project in KIELER that we will compile and deploy to the NXT brick.
