Camera And Sound Servo Help

Hi guys! I have a camera on my robot, and I was wondering if you can record with it. If so, how do I do it? Also I really like using the sound servo, but every time I pause it, it breaks and I have to restart Ez builder to get it to work again. Is that something you are working on, or is it my computer? Thanks!

I installed the latest ARC today and fired up InMoov. I ran a script with this in it; ADC_Wait(ADC0,lower,150) and got this error message Error on line 5: ADC_Wait requires at least 4 parameter. You passed 3. I uninstalled the current ARC and re-installed a version from 1/18/2016 and that code ran fine with no error message. What is it looking...

Ez_B Namespace In New C++ Project

I am having some trouble getting visual studio (vs2013) to recognize the EZ_B namespace in a new c++ project. It works fine in the example project from the SDK though. However, because of other components (specifcally YARP) I need to compile using CMake. My CMakeLists.txt looks like this: CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED(VERSION 2.8.9) SET(PROJECTNAME ez)...

Maybe A Dumb Question - Make Bigger Jd

So even though I barely even began, I have plans for this little guy and wondered whether instead of the leg extensions, one could add one more servo to each leg and arm and make JD a bit bigger with more articulation. Is the EVB4 capable of adding four more servos to control walking or is this a thoroughly stupid Idea using too much of the evb...

Auto-Download Feature

JD, First, thank you for your previous help with plugins. I have already made a few to help teach some of the introductory CTS courses. Getting to the point, I believe I have discovered an error in the plugin manager service. The error occurs when the user opens the project file directly (not through the program executive), and they do not have the...
