I am new to robot community but have been interested since I was a kid. I recently purchased two(2) Isobots from eBay. Only one works. Is there a mother board or robot controller that will fit inside of an Isobot? I put a Robi head on the one that works and was wanting to install a camera and a ez robot ez-bv4/2. Does anyone know if this will be possible? I saw someone on YouTube install a arduino inside an Isobot and was wondering how complicated would it be? Thank you for any available information.

Does that robot use hobby style servos? Can you show information or pics of the connectors etc
if so, then I think the ezrobot ezb v4 is the best option because it has a camera and audio. Plug the servos in, use the Auto Position Movement Panel robot skill to make gait and animations. Add a joystick or something to control it.
add the camera device to see the camera.

I think the EZ-Robot EZ-B IoTiny might be a better fit. The Isobot is a small robot. I have one. at about 5 1/2" tall, there is not room for an EZB v4. Even a IoTiny might be too big. Then there is the Arduino Pico. At .6" (15mm), they are about 1/4 of the size of the other boards.
