Hello Everyone,
First, I present me. I am 27 old and I am new in the world of robotics. I like robots since a lot of time but I do not know what can I do. Years ago, I bougth a used Roboquad because, for me, it was the most developped toy. But, after a long time on the web, I found nothing to modify it very cool. Only LEDs colors stress .
Today, I found this website and my dreams be back with the EZ Robot Controller.
When I was young, I watched "F/X: The Series" with the small robot (The french name is "Bleuet"
)
My question is : " Is it possible to do something with the Roboquad and EZ Robot Controller ?"
Thank you for your answer.
P.S. : Sorry if my english is not very good.

F/X Series was one of my favorite shows when i was younger too! It's a good thing you reminded me of it because i'm going to start watching it. I don't remember the robot for some reason, i'll have to refresh my memory
You can sure make a roboquad with the controller and software. You can technically make anything, as long as you dedicate the time to it
Your english is great! Your spelling is better than mine haha
Welcome! As far as I can tell, theer isn't much the EZ-B can't do. And your english is better than most Americans...
There is some free ware that will run your robosapiens from a PC. It can do voice command and scripting . I use it on my robosapiens V1 and V2.Cool soft ware but limited by the way wow wee set them up. It also does other wow wee products and isobot.. When I get home from work I'll send a link to ya if you want. DJs is really cool because you are only limited by your ability and imagination ! JW
Thanks all.
@ww321q Mine is not a RoboSapiens but a RoboQuad. No PC connection with Roboquad.
I read that is it possible to make code in VB.NET. I know this language but is it really possible to do all with the EZ-B. Something like AI for exemple. My objective is to make an autonomous robot for a lot of things. For exemple : "Go in the bathroom !" and the robot execute
.
Edit : Is it always necessary to have a PC to play with the robot or is it only for programming ?

@ghicat. The board is a control interface your pc does all the processing. If you want your bot to be completely autonomous without a pc tethered you must install a mini pc. Mini itx motherboards include dual core processors to run Windows between 8 and 30 watts depending on your model choice and hard drive or SD card for memory. I'm using big batteries in a large bot so I'm fine with a regular hard drive.. there are netbooks out there from Acer one that you can get for 80 to 100 bucks on eBay
@ghicat It supports Roboquad V1 . It uses a IR transmitter . It would be capable of doing anything that you could do with the remote . There is no PC connection , just IR from the PC . J.W.
@dj and @ghicat the robot in that fx series was named blue , he was a robot dog , made dog noises. He had 6 legs a head that turned left right up down , a pinhole camera as a face and ultrasonic sensors as eyes. It was a all aluminum chassis. He ran on 10 servos and 5.5ah 7.2v battery nicad battery Velcro to its "belly". He had a tiny Mic too
I was looking for a pic of that robot but couldn't find one
