Check the tutorial page for the Brookstone Rover under Robot Platforms. The video explains exactly how to connect to the rover, add a Movement Panel and add the camera. From the looks of it you don't even need the EZB to use ARC with the rover.

no but he put the ez-b on the rover so it can roam autonomusly.(pardon my spelling)

The Brookstone Rover Movement Panel is connected via wifi. The other sensors are controlled by the EZB. The Brookstone Rover itself does not connect to the EZB but it all goes through ARC. Add the EZB (with power source or powered by the same batter of the rover if it's capable), and the ping sensor to the rover. Add the radar to ARC. Follow the instructions for the ping sensor to set that up. Add voice recognition and follow the vr tutorial to set that up. You need to look at the tutorials for each individual item.

its cool but wouldn't the ez-b count as a second robot? 1.rover 2.ez-b 3. 4. 5. I really need to know this for my wall-e project.(hint:rover is the base)

No,it controls the ROVER and also uses extra sensors CAN easy do the same for WALL-E project ,have part of the board to control the base other can control wall-e and sensors if you need them

EZB is not a robot it only controls the robot

The ezb doesn't connect to the rover according to the tutorial, movement is through WiFi and ARC.
