I am about to receive a Loomo robot. I would like to know if there is any way of interfacing to it using a ez robot interface?
@DJ, Could you get the needed info from this sample which runs on an Android phone and provides movement control for base and head as well as a camera display? github.com/iteratec/LoomoRemotePhone
Of course, it requires the Iteratec receiver running on the Loomo in the Developer Mode github.com/iteratec/LoomoRemoteRobot
Here is the only info I could find on the connectivity Class developer.segwayrobotics.com/developer/documents/java-doc.html

No. I looked at all of that. They don’t give you any protocol documentation. That app includes a precompiled library for java. Nothing that I can use.
As an owner of their product, you can ask them for protocol documentation.
My Robot is due to arrive today. When I get it I will a request for protocol documentation
You can pick up a used hoverboard for < $100 these days and a quick hack and JD could be cruising down the street in no time.
I agree with Nick, you are purchasing a Robot with multiple sensors: 3D camera, display, CPU and potential to explore a lot of cool technologies: Navigation, vision recognition etc etc.
And you are only interested in a Movement Panel ? Maybe there multiple versions ? One with sensors and another without ?
I can exchange a hacked tuned hover board with ARC remote control panel with your Segway... (joking)
Does the segway comes with Android device or you need to add your mobile device ?
There is a IOS app and android interface app. But it appears you need a android system to build any programming interface. I have a iPhone to run the app. For android I suppose I can load that on my windows pc
You get a android device which is its display and brains. There is also a hardware interface for external devices( none have been announced yet).
You can run Android Studio on your Windows PC to build Android apps to run on the Loomo
You could also use that to build apps to run on an Android tablet/phone
THe SDK only includes Java support
Java support or not - if you guys own one of these things, ask the company to publish the communication protocol. Then it can be expanded for other software, like ARC.
