Openbot

Has anyone ever used OpenBot? How do I use it on my raspberry pi? Does it allow me to control my robot from my pi?


ARC Pro

Upgrade to ARC Pro

You are going to need a faster computer, probably.

Like a Windows 7,8. Dual and Quad core work well.

You can certainly communicate with your pi by a serial port.

Good Luck.

I will be repeating what is on the openBot website, but here goes... It is a C++ library that allows you to control your EZ-B from a raspberry Pi or Linux system.

So, if you are experienced with C++ and Linux, then the OpenBot platform allows you to control your EZ-B from a raspberry Pi or Linux.

What you may be looking for is ARC, which does not require C++ experience and is much easier to use. ARC is a very powerful and easy to use system which the majority of our community uses. The ARC runs on Wnidows 7 or 8 Operating System and also creates projects which can run on Android and iOS (soon).

:) Hope that helps!

I wish the EZ Robot program ran on a linux computer. I don't use Windows. Not quite there as far as being able to write programs either. Kind of at the beginning stages of learning code.
