Intel Minnow Mother Board

This board looks like it could revolutionize onboard robotics, it is very powerful and almost as small as the EZ-B, and it is an entire Motherboard! The main thing is it is X86 based so you can run Windows on it. I have posted the link below, let me know what you guys think of this board....

Ez B Help

When I connect the adapter to the EZ B, the blue light blinks but the red light does not blink. I am using this ez robot kit in a class and others teams have automatically gotten the red light to turn on by plugging in the adapter. However, this was not the case for my team.

Ez Robots; What Comes 1St, The Kit Or The Board?

Hi EZ Robots staff, I've got 3 EZB V4's on order. Who will you take care of first, the newbies who are spending the big bucks on the entire kits or those of us who are ordering the new boards to upgrade?

How To Reduce Rad Base Noise?

So looking around I saw a couple of ideas like That sound-proof foam or tinfoil. What I'm wondering is how I can make my rad base's gearboxes quieter for cheap so I can use it to do recon. Any ideas are welcome.

Keyboard Input

Had an idea.... With the keyboard being replaced by voice commands and the increasing likelihood of us being able to put a PC on board our bots I was thinking about ways to improve the sensor grid and make it a bit more advanced than the few micro switches and wires we use at present. Are we able to take input in from the keyboard into our ARC...

Camera Question.

Does anybody know if I can use a different camera instead of the easy cam that comes with the kit? Like a security camera with infrared lighting?
