JD Robot Occasionally Spasms When Closing ARC Without Disconnecting First

Sometimes, when closing ARC, JD's servos violently spasm and rush towards their limits. However, I noticed this doesn't happen when it's disconnected first before closing. I don't know how to replicate this problem nor do I know why it occurs. Has anyone else seen something similar to this before? Or have any suggestions on how to go about fixing...

Been Out Of The Loop For Years, Have Questions

I've been out of the EZ Robot loop for several years.  Recently, someone followed up on a forum post I made, and it reminded me that I still have one of these things.  It seems that a few things have changed, so I have some questions to get up to speed. 1. It looks like the new Synthiam isn't a brand change, but an addition to the business or...

Camera Resolution And Face Detection

Hi, Can you tell me definitively what the resolution of the camera on the JD Robot is? Information online suggests it is 640x480, but when first connecting in ARC the resolution defaults to 320x240.

[?] The Ezbv4 Can Have Any Ip Address You Want, As Long As It's 192.168.1.1

However, my network is also in the 192.168.1/24 range. I thought I would just connect to the EZBv4 and change it's IP scheme/address and all would be fine. Nope. No options to. After poking...

Does ARC Beta Still Support Ezb V3?

Trying to use Latte Panda to connect Bluetooth to older EZB-3.  Win 10 does seem to see EZB-3 and assigns com ports asks for the 1234 pairing code but then open ARC Beta and I don't see how to select com ports,  before I used to see a support button for EZB V3 but I can't find that either now in the Beta? Also tried the Ez3 firmware update but it...

Mobile EZB And USB Connection

Is it possible for EZB-mobile have support for USB connection?  My robot has an embedded pc with USB connection at the moment, but I would rather use something smaller if possible.  I had problems, in the past, with WiFi dropping connection or struggle to gain connection in large crowds. I settled with an embedded computer for the last 1-2 years....
