Connecting To EZB Web Interface If Connected Through USB And Comm Port Problem

OK, I used to know this but can't dig it out of my brain. Can't find the answer on EZ Robot's site either.  I'm connecting ARC to three EZB v4's through USB on an onboard Rock Pi x. How do you log into the EZB's web portal if I'm connected that way? I really don't want to push the reset button and get to it over WIFI (which I do know how to do)....

Lidar Compatibility

@DJ Hate to put you on the spot, asking if this lidar WILL work with Arc but can you give me your best opinion? Looking at the pics, it says Hitachi-LG LDS. Being that it is only $17.31 shipped it might be time to go with a Lidar! ...Link... They also sell a Slamtec RPLidar-A1 for $99.00. MMMMM which one do I want to go with? lol ...Link... Thanks...

Object Character Recognition

Google and Microsoft both have Object Character Recognition (OCR) models available via API. There is a free tier and a paid tier for either. It would be absolutely amazing to have a camera skill that can read text. This could even trigger the translate option or integrate with Chat GPT3. Lots of follow on options if we unlock OCR.

Arduino Mega Firmware

I downloaded the firmware for the Arduino Mega and unzipped it. I double clicked on the EZ- MEGA - V1 but it did not load into my Arduino IDE. It just asked what app I wanted to open it with. The file I downloaded was dated 10/11/2021. If you have any ideas about what I am doing wrong I would appreciate it?
