Hello,
I was using RoboScratch in my mobile application and noticed the Wait for Color, Wait for Face, Wait for Glyph don't appear to work in mobile ARC application.
Seems I read in one of the threads that Wait for Color works on Mobile Device using RoboScratch but not Wait for Face, or Wait for Glyph detection. Am I correct or all wet?
Seems I also read somewhere that speech recognition and video tracking and recognition don't work in the mobile app due to the amount of processor power required to do these tasks. Even to detect the color of red. Would this be correct or again am I all wet. I think this statement is probably correct?
Thanks Much, Rick Bonari
Thanks to everyone ! I will give it a try again. I was using the basic color recognition (red). I may need to go thru the procedure again that DJ mentioned earlier and try again.
One thing I was wondering is that if I properly train in ARC pc and upload from cloud to cell phone and then power the pc down do the training settings stay with the mobile device app? I would assume they do. For it to work properly on mobile app with pc shut down it seems that the lighting conditions would have to match pretty much the conditions that it was originally trained with. Would this be a correct assumption? Thanks again....Rick B.
All settings in a project are saved with a project. For example, if you select a color and brightness and save the project, those values are saved as well.
Yes that is a correct assumption. The idea of saving a document on a computer will save the state of the document - same applies to a project. The save button will save the configuration of the project.
In my instructions, I explained that you will also need to update the app manually on mobile. Merely saving the project on your PC to the ezcloud does not mean the app is updated on your mobile. You have to manually update the app on mobile. This can be done by pressing the update apps button on ARC mobile main screen or by reinstalling the app.
Lastly, there is no need to shut down the PC. Simply pressing disconnect in ARC, or closing ARC is enough.
Revisit the edits to my previous post - I provided step by step instructions.
Thank you DJ, that helps a whole bunch ! Rick B.
Hello,
In RoboScratch with the mobile app when you use the camera: take picture block, wher does the picture get stored on your cell phone?
I assumed it was stored in the picture gallery, however I don't find it there?
Thanks much, Rick B.
Not sure on android - it'll be not in the gallery, but in the photos folder. There isn't a standard android library for that, and has to be specific per device. There's too many devices so we store it in the pictures folder.
You can always check the application log to see if there are any errors attempting to save the picture due to permissions.
Thanks DJ. I found it in my download pictures folder....Rick B.
