Help Prevent Jf Faceplanting

Hi all, When my JD decides that his battery level is low, he lurches forward from a standing position and does a spectacular faceplant on my desk or floor! To prevent the poor guy cracking his face, I was hoping to script an early warning system that would advise me when he was approaching critical level so I could at least lay him down flat first....

Custom 3D Bits And Contest?

Since several of us are on a roll with developing new 3D designs for EZ-Robot parts I wanted to start a thread to see what other parts users are interested in. And I wanted to see if anyone was interested in a design off contest? Here are a few things I'm planning to work on: -Some new male and female EZ-Bit connectors to make small interconnects...

Help For The Newest Of The New

Hello guys and girls! My name is Adam and I am extremely new to robotics.

V4 Case Or Mouting Base?

Hey All, Does anyone have a V4 case design other than the EZ-Robot one that is posted? Looking for something different to print, figured I'd ask first before I waste time designing something up. If you have a .STL to share that would be great.

Mp3 Trigger Added To Mobile?

Hello everyone, Does anyone know if there are plans to add support for the mp3 trigger control into the mobile interface builder? I'm currently using the mp3 trigger connected to an external speaker which is much louder than the speaker in the EZ-B v4. I know about the tutorial on how to break out the sound but I'd rather not modify my EZ-B if I...
question

What Is The Ezb Serial Terminal Used For And How Do You Use It?

Hello, Just wondering what the EZB Serial Terminal is and how you would use it? I assume the PC Serial Terminal in ARC allows you to view serial data coming into and going out of the PC Serial Port. Seems it takes the place of hyperterminal, etc. The use of EZB Serial Terminal is not obvious to me. I have an idea but I don't think it is correct....
