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.
Hmm, one can probably use "lever" servos only for the arms, but the ARC instructions for Roli say to use "rotation" servos at the connection to the main body (i.e. shoulder joint). So that's what we tried to do. Same with the current video in the "Shop" area, it shows rotation servos.
Not the biggest problem for us right now, we're having issues connecting to the EZ-B via WiFi on the kid's computer. Trying via my laptop now.
Not that it really matters any, but I think you have the upper neck (rotate) servo on backwards... Check Roli's picture in the online store to see what I mean.....
DHL just dropped off the plastic bits to convert the lever servos to rotation servos (I actually used 2 from my dev kit so I can give Roli longer arms).
Awesome to hear @thetechguru! Glad they came so fast- I just sent it out on Friday
Yeah, I saw all the DHL envelopes on the desk in the office camera, and was going to comment that it must be Roli parts, but I got busy and when I looked again they were gone.
Also super pleased with DHL. they have come a long way in the past few years. They sent me a text last night to say it was due to be delivered today, and a link to options to change the address or have it held at their location. I am home sick today, so I re-directed it from my office to my home. Showed up with no problem.
Edited to remove comments about arms buzzing. Discovered it was that the AutoPosition in the Roli example had the claws at 95 instead of 90 in the resting position, so they were buzzing like crazy.

@Richard Your obsolutly right, untill you get the proper parts from us you can 3D print them for the time being. The parts are located here.

Thanks for quickly taking care of this EZ-Robots!
