The easiest way to program the most powerful robots.
Use technologies by leading industry experts.
ARC is a free-to-use robot programming software that makes servo automation, computer vision, autonomous navigation, and artificial intelligence easy.
Did you have any problems, or have to make any modifications to the Sparkfun Board you recommended? I am ready to order it now but I read through the comment section and it seems many people have had issues with it.
Connect the RX and TX lines off the TTL usb adapter to the EZ-B plug and voila
Will EZ B still connect to ARC for programing
i want my bot to be autominous so i don't mind not having
BT control over it
could you give me link please
windows xp or what to do to connect to ARC
At the bottom, you should see a 'USB COM port (COM...)'
Do you need to also hook up the USB->TTL adapter GND to the EZ-B GND? Or are you only using the Tx and Rx?
Connecting ground is necessary, you can see how i connected mine in my omnibot video part 2 at (1:35):
So the Sparkfun board Rx goes to Rx on the EZ-B and the Tx goes to Tx on the EZ-B and GND to GND.
Will I need to use 3.3V or 5 V?
