The WowWee RoboQuad makes for a perfectly affordable unique robot platform, with the aid of EZ-Robot.
Description:
After adding support for his WowWee RoboSapien, DJ continued on to the RoboQuad! He added support within an EZ-B. After dissecting the RoboQuad and examining the Infrared Sensor - he realized the communication protocol could be reverse engineered.
Using his Saleae LLC Logic Analyzer, he spent some time reverse engineering each command from the Infrared Remote Control that ships with the RoboQuad. The modification to the RoboQuad is very easy and can be done by just about anyone. Watch the video to see what amazing features you can add to your old RoboQuad toy!
