Aforge.Net Conflict With Sdk

How can I use the latest version of AForge.NET side by side with the EZ-Robot SDK? Since the SDK has an aforge.dll and already uses AForge, I get a conflict when I try to include the actual AForge.NET dll's in the same project. I've tried using extern alias to separate the two in my own code, but still get the conflict. I believe extern alias won't...

Kit Servos And Power Ratings

I haven't yet received my kit, but I am beginning to plan out my robot. I'm building off an existing vintage chassis like most folks. This chassis includes 2 small DC motors and gear box used for its drive train. They power wheels that are roughly 2 inch (5cm) in diameter. This robot weighs just about 7lbs (3.1kg), and may weigh slightly more in...

Dream About D.J. Last Night

He had a white beard and Long white hair. He was carrying two tablets with the EZB Scripts on them. He appeared to have gotten even more smarter. ..... then I...

For Sale Section?

Hey, I was just wondering if it would be a good idea to have a for sale / wanted section on the forum? I'm after a few bits for my robots and I have a few things to sell aswell.

Need Help To Setup Full Serial Interface Without Using I2c

Another posting brought up the request for ARC based interfacing to Aurdino boards. Understandably it is not going to happen as they require their own not-so-ez-programming. I still feel that full interfacing of the EZ-B to all other electronic devices can be beneficial, regardless of said devices origin, LED, sensor or another micro-controller....

Can I Modify Movement Panel Configuration Via Joystick Buttons?

I am attempting to have the EZ-B control the OWI-535 arm. There is only one movement panel allowed. This should be fine provided I can reconfigure the movement panel with the script triggered by a joystick button down script. Is this possible?

Sound Servo And Leds

Hello everybody, been awhile since I posted. I'm not home so I cant try this out. Do you think it is possible to have an LED connected to a digital port with Sound servo connected to this port, then as the channel is activated by voice/sound, that changes the brightness of the LED? Is PWM better for LEDs? But there is no Sound PWM command :/...
