 =====The protocol=====

 From wikipedia: //"Bluetooth is a wireless protocol for exchanging data over short distances"//(([[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth]])). The NXT hosts a bluetooth communication device, and is capable of communicating at up to approximately 10 metres distance.\\
-Lejos has built an entire framework for bluetooth communication, over normal Java input/output streams.

 We do not want to go further into the details of the protocol itself, but the way the device is shared can eventually end up in data loss(([[http://lejos.sourceforge.net/nxt/nxj/api/lejos/nxt/comm/BTConnection.html]])). We however do not care about this, since we intend to use it to send loads of control keycodes to the robot without worrying whether they will all arrive safely at the destination.
-On the PC Lejos has also made a bluetooth interface. This works exactly the same as the one on the NXT, and we therefore simply had to make a connection (listening on the NXT and connecting on the PC) and then creating input/output streams, to make the communication work as intended.

 We experienced a lot of slowdown in the balancing thread whenever the bluetooth communication was running, and we had to disable it entirely at numerous occations to avoid the robot falling over.\\
