Ultrasonic Radar Screen Display

Help Please I have added the ultrasonic radar to my project. I tested it with the 3 different controls and can not get a full display of the scan. It shows about 55 degrees of scan and the rest of the display is black. I know the scan starts at some point below the bottom left hand side of the screen by watching the "servo" info at the...

Servo Jumping Around On Low Power / Power Dips

After lots of testing with servos, I have noticed that when the ezbv4 experiences a power dip when the battery is getting lower (Not too low - around the 7v mark with a lipo 7.4, 1300) the servos seem to reset themselves and search for their mid position. I should really get a better battery. However, found a solution to at least get slightly...

How Can You Add Google Inquiry?

I was wondering if you could add a feature like Google Assistant to ARC so that you could ask your robot any google facts, make schedules, etc. The only thing I can think of to do is just buy a Google Home, install it on the robot, and try to match the voice. I am very new to this and apologize if this sounds basic. Thanks!

Has Anyone Simulated The Jd Humanoid Robot In V-Rep?

Hi all! Just Joined the community on 10DEC2016Sa and purchased a JD Humanoid Kit. I'm experienced in software design and programming. Has anyone here tried to simulate the JD Humanoid(JDH) in the V-REP simulator? The reasons for simulating JDH are to experiment with various algorithms without damaging the real robot and also validate and verify...

Six Keeps Burning Out Lever Servo Motors

I have a Revolution Six that I have used for one of my robotics classes the past two years. Last year, Six worked fine. This year, for some reason, it is burning out lever servo motors. I have gone through 5 already this year on the same robot. The burnouts occur on different ports, and happen at different times. I asked my students what they were...
