230 A Finding Parts and Programming Environments You can order sensors, motors, and other robot parts from several sources. Although you can probably find the Robotics Invention System (RIS) at a local toy store, you`ll hardly ever see extra motors and sensors. LEGO Sources Table A-1 lists three places where you can get RIS accessories. Table A-1. Sources for LEGO Parts Name LEGO World Shop LEGO Shop-at-Home Pitsco LEGO DACTA Telephone - Service (800) 453 – 4652 (800) 362 - 4308 Web Site http://www.legoworldshop.com/ - http://www.pitsco-legodacta.com/ Pitsco LEGO DACTA sells LEGO`s educational products, including RIS, a programming environment called ROBOLAB, classroom packages, and a fine assortment of spare parts. Parts Table A-2 lists the parts you may wish to buy along with their prices at the three sources shown in Table A-1. This information is current as of mid-1999. (LWS is LEGO World Shop, S@H is LEGO Shop-at-Home Service, and Pitsco is Pitsco LEGO DACTA.) Note that the Shop-at-Home Service does not charge extra for shipping, so the list is not exactly comparing apples to apples. 231 Table A-2.
